MAY I (P)INTEREST YOU IN A PODCAST?  
Noël breaks down the making of Pinterest Sans on  
link  
The Follow up  
, in conversation with Simon Blockley  
and James Hurst of Pinterest, and Alistair Webb of Made Thought.  
You’ll have to subscribe to listen  
to the episode, but you can also check out Pinterest’s  
link  
case study  
and  
link  
our own commission study  
online.  
We like to imagine a typeface like a person it has its own unique personality.  
The personal  
aspects of Pinterest Sans needed to be approachable, simple, personal, and modern, so we had to  
ask: How can we infuse all of this personality within a very simple and modern look to make the  
typeface not bland or boring or too much like something that already exists?  
Building a geometric  
sans serif typeface has this tipping point if you make it too geometric, it will look too static or  
bleak, and not warm enough. And if you make it too funky and dynamic, it won’t look serious enough.  
So you have to find the sweet spot between the two, and you can only do that by really getting into  
the details.  
It requires taking very emotional and complex feelings that the client wants and  
translating that into a bunch of sequential, two dimensional sculptures.
