On Corpulence: Feeding the Body and Feeding the Mind was jointly published by Pushkin Press and The London Library in their “Found on the Shelves” series.
The illustration referencing the children’s game known as Mixies (or mélimélo in French), a sort of ready-made exquisite corps, was provided by Joe McLaren.
As with The Right to Fly, designer David Pearson has found a good use for one of the “gidital typefaces” by The Pyte Foundry. “During the course of the year 2016 Ellmer Stefan will release a new Fount of Display Type on this website every consecutive Monday.” This one is No. 07, named Lyrics. It is paired with Berton Hasebe’s Druk Wide (Commercial Type, 2014).
