He creates the appropriate theme for each location. New York City references bright yellow neons, while London Calling alludes to the tube. Good on Tarka for using [The Clash album](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Calling)title as well! Tarka can be followed on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/PiotrTarka) and liked on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/tarka.design?ref=ts&fref=ts), so if you like what you see, hop on the Tarka train as over 5,000 other fans have done on his social media! ![Typo Tuesday: City Type](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hubfs/Headjam%20May2018/Images/Typography11_002.jpg) ![Typo Tuesday: City Type](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hubfs/Headjam%20May2018/Images/Typography11_003.jpg) ![Typo Tuesday: City Type](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hubfs/Headjam%20May2018/Images/Typography11_004.jpg) ![Typo Tuesday: City Type](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hubfs/Headjam%20May2018/Images/Typography11_005.jpg) ![Typo Tuesday: City Type](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hubfs/Headjam%20May2018/Images/Typography11_006.jpg) ![Typo Tuesday: City Type](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hubfs/Headjam%20May2018/Images/Typography11_007.jpg) ![Typo Tuesday: City Type](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hubfs/Headjam%20May2018/Images/Typography11_008.jpg) ## If you have a project in mind or would like to work with us, send us a message. ## [![Typo Tuesday: Tough Typography](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/Musculante-01.jpg?width=1360&height=900&upsize=true&upscale=true&name=Musculante-01.jpg) Typo Tuesday: Tough Typography](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/typo-tuesday-tough-typography) [Creative](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/tag/creative) · [Design](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/tag/design) · [Typography](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/tag/typography) ## [![Typo Tuesday: Children of Bolduc](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/les_enfants_001.gif?width=1360&height=900&upsize=true&upscale=true&name=les_enfants_001.gif) Typo Tuesday: Children of Bolduc](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/typo-tuesday-children-of-bolduc) [Creative](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/tag/creative) · [Typography](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/tag/typography) ## [![Typo Tuesday: Indeskribable](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/fold_yard_001.jpg?width=1360&height=900&upsize=true&upscale=true&name=fold_yard_001.jpg) Typo Tuesday: Indeskribable](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/typo-tuesday-indeskribable) [Creative](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/tag/creative) · [Typography](https://spreadable.headjam.com.au/spreadable/tag/typography) Have an idea in mind?
