Why X+O? Because an X+O is one of the most primal marks a person can make. Because we use those marks to close messages to people we care for. Making new letters is making new ways for people to say, “Hey there, kamutsa, bom dia, zdrávo, kako ste! I see you over there and want to show you something I’ve written. I’d love to see something you’ve written, too.” All the type at XO is made by Patric King, who’s been making letters since 1994 — first with Thirstype, then Village, and now on his own.
