"By the time every child has reached the age of five years, they become intimately acquainted with an old sage of the art world – a man whose name and visage have echoed through the minds of every artist. From the Old Masters to the Pre-Raphaelites, right down to the American designers whose work was more Modern than Mid-Century. No one man has left such an indelible mark on the art world than he; I'm talking of course of good old Roy G. (Biv). Always so plainspoken – but so very crucial to so many people – I figured it was time to pay homage to our steadfast chum using some of the basic elements in the artist's toolbox; color, geometry, and numbers. Hats off to you, old friend."

Jack Curry is a brand designer and occasional type designer that lives and works in New York City. He enjoys single malts and Belgian dubbels, as well as bright colors, dark coffee (preferably made in a Chemex), and light banter. He can usually be found in any one of the many coffee shops in Lower Manhattan, buried in a book, magazine, or newly acquired type specimen.
