Sardegna, in Type

Most designers can relate to the urge to photograph typography when visiting a new city. The way businesses choose to represent themselves never stops being fascinating: the typeface, the colours, the materials, how much care went into it, or how little. I just got back from Sardegna. Here are a few snapshots from the camera roll I enjoyed, for one reason or another.
