Steven Heller picks Art Grootfontein’s Gilway Paradox as his Font of the Month — an elastic, kinetic display family that he calls neither beautiful nor ugly, but awkward in a way that pulls memory forward. He reads it through the carnival sign-painters and arcade lettering of the early-1960s Long Beach boardwalk, an aesthetic anarchy that survived the rationalist turn in graphic design and quietly seeded much of the eccentric typography we’re seeing again today.
