The Story
Sociotype Journal Magazine
Issue 3
‘Specimens of culture’
Launched in 2022, Sociotype Journal is a magazine that just happens to also be a type speciman—‘for anyone that likes to read while looking at type.’ It uses fonts designed by Sociotype, a foundry linked to London design studio Socio.
This third, peachy-pink coloured edition for 2024-25 is themed ‘Home’ and asks: ‘What makes a home?’ The issue investigates domesticity, from masterplanned utopias and Potemkin villages, McMansions and sham castles, to cube farms, spite fences, coffin homes and more.
