Margo Chase died in a plane crash July 22nd.
She was one of the pioneers of digital type design, designing many imaginative fonts.
She moved on with Chase Design Group, doing mainstream branding, very type-savvy.
I worked on a project for her last year and just finished another, in which she designed and drew a smart script typeface and art directed versions of which I roughed up and randomized.
She was a pleasure to work for. Much respect.
