Tolerance poster design by David Tartakover featured in the 'Fonts in Use' blog. " For his contribution, Israeli designer David Tartakover opted for a photographic self-portrait in which he applied lipstick. The text is in English, Arabic, and Hebrew, and makes early use of Abraham . This multiscript typeface for public signage was designed as my graduation project at the KABK in The Hague. Abraham was subsequently released with Fontef .' – Daniel Grumer
