Let’s talk about tattoos and type. I have a lot of friends with them, and, in what may be shocking for you to hear, I have quite a few of them myself. Most of mine are either related to some personal tragedy or incident in my life, or just a giant octopus, but I’ve thought a lot about getting something design-related recently. And when I found out about TypeTatts<\/a>, a project by Brazilian designer Will Jr. on Behance, I was hooked. The clash between the traditional tattoo style and the modern font design makes these tattoos a unique approach to body art. Frankly, I may have a new ink idea or two.
