Found Type: Mermaid Oyster Bar

Great hand-lettering of the Mermaid Inn (Oyster Bar) chalkboard in West Village. Caught my eye. Sounds good, too, right? :)

((It was a night time, sorry for the dark and blurry photos…))

I LOVE their logo from the second I saw it, designed by the amazing Louise Fili. This is the store sign of the Oyster Bar.

and I love their matches, too. I usually take home few to light candles at home :)

and their food? SO GOOD!! There, it completes everything.

Off to printing! See you tomorrow. xo Hijiri

Subway Art: Christopher St.

This Subway Art is from Christopher St. station (1) in West Village. It is so very unique and very interesting.

and it comes with titles and descriptions just like museum. Pretty awesome.

Found Type: Fashion Window Display

I took these pictures in July, but found lots types on fashion window display.

Brooklyn Industries in West Village window:

Some letters are on the window, some letters are 3-D and hanging in the store — gives interesting depth!

and neon letters at Marc Jacobs store in West Village:

Speaking of Fashion… tonight is a Fashion’s Night Out in NYC! I had fun last year, it’ll be fun this year, too… Happy Friday, everyone! xo Hijiri
