Volume 7, Issue 07
April 7, 2022

This publication was mapped, sequenced, and illuminated by designers Ainsley Romero and Junyi Shi.

The type for this issue is set in Kai Bernau’s Lyon (2005–2010)—a serif typeface based on historical models of the 16th-century punch cutter by Robert Granjon for books and contemporary publication; with additional type in Johannes Breyer and Fabian Harb’s Favorit (2013)—a straightforward, low-contrast grotesque that combines geometric rigidity with subtle oddities and a humorous touch. The lettering found on the cover was hand-painted by Ainsley Romero with watered-down black ink and a foam craft brush.

Distributed on various couches, desks, and mailboxes around Yale and Rice campuses, the United States, and the world.
