Dave Foster

Dave Foster creates not just illustrations, but also the type that goes into it. He is an independent designer in Sydney, Australia. The picture above is of one Foster's typographical fonts. This is not just an impressive design or idea, but is very well carried out. This requires a lot of font manipulation, planning, sketching, and clicking of the mouse. In this map there are more than 380 tribes in their respective places. This is one of the most eye-catching pieces I've seen and provides the audience with plenty of content to appreciate. Foster has created his own set of type called FosterType which is a package of 8 styles of serif fonts in 4 different weights.
