Lost Type Co-op

The Lost Type Co-op is a collaboration between Tyler Galpin and Riley Cran. It was founded with the intention of providing unique and quality fonts based on a pay-what-you-want model. All designers get 100% of the donations their font receives. 

Over the past few months I’ve been able to have a few good conversations with the up-and-coming designer Tyler Galpin, and his story is quite inspiring.  Almost a year ago Tyler was working in at a bank in Canada wrangling spreadsheets and pursuing a career in finance.  At the same time he was trying to balance out his career with a passion for design.  One day while working on an insanely large spreadsheet it hit him that he should change course and dive head-first into what he loves—design.  

Through serious networking, hard work, raw talent and becoming incredibly active in the design community his career in design took off.  Keep an eye on Tyler.

To sum it up, don’t waste time doing anything other than what you love.
