Does anyone else think this is a strange name for a restaurant? I can’t see that name being used in the states.. but I like the look from Bravo Company who designed identity and collateral for Mexout, a “fresh-mex eatery in Singapore.” - Singapore!?.. that explains it, not in the states…

Museum of Typography

If you are a typeface geek, you might just enjoy a visit to the Buchstaben Museum—also known as the Museum of Letters, which celebrates typefaces. 

Tucked away behind a mall in central Berlin, the museum features a collection built from contributors who share the love for typography.

Buchstaben Museum is home to hundreds of letters that have been “rescued” from public spaces and folded businesses—it also preserves, restores and exhibits signage that have been found from around Berlin and all over the world.
