Hi,
I'm doing a project in Typography class about the tyepface Ibis, by Cyrus Highsmith of Font Bureau. I was wondering if anybody knew where it is or has been used? I haven't had much luck finding this.
Thanks for your help
Here as a web font: http://kupferschrift.de/cms/
Correction: It was used as the basis of the current Fortune logotype. As explained in this blog post, Highsmith modified his Ibis starting point a fair bit. So, that’s not a pure example.
Highsmith has written a short book on type fundamentals, due out this summer, the text of which we set in Ibis Text, but that probably won’t help you in time for your class project.
I don't know if you only need big/highly visible projects, but FWIW I've recently used Ibis Text as the secondary typeface in the branding of a little actuarial consulting outfit here in Switzerland (photo), together with Breuer Text – one of my favorite new-found pairings.
Ibis RE – the webfont version optimized for small sizes – is also used on the Edible Vineyard website and fontbureau.com itself.
And all over my operating system (you can get Ibis RE for desktop use, too).
