This post is about a Chilean Design Students oriented website I’m working on, so its content is rather irrelevant in english. If you’d like to view it in spanish, just click on the flag to your right.

Hetilica Bold FOR FREE

As a part of a College final exam I had to make a typeface which I ended up naming Hetilica.

Based on information signs of alcohol licenses among several beverage expendiums in the area of Cartagena, Chile; Hetilica is composed of wide strokes and the brush’s interaction with the medium.

You can download it 100% free by clicking here.

Please feel free to use and spread as you please. Just let me know when you do so I can see it in action.

Cheers and thanks.

Hetilica Bold

Hetilica Bold

This font I just finished is based on the local alcohol stores around the beach in the city of Cartagena over here in Chile. It was a project for our school workshop class and I’ll be giving it out for free in the upcoming days, just gotta adjust some minor tweaks, add a few more characters and maybe, just maybe release it in a couple more weights.

Anyways stay sharp for the release of this and a couple more fonts of mine.

Thanks for dropping by.

TheKDU.net goes live

We’re just opening up the doors over here at TheKDU.net and it’s been amazing and enlightening to see that the entire fam now has a place to interact and build up even further.

Huge things to come. Big up to Sub Rosa and the KDU core crew for making this happen.

Website Update

Diego Quintana updates

After a whole lot of geeky-skill-needing issues, I’ve finally re-launched my official personal portfolio with a lot of new works, some drafts and some quality pics of printed works.

Also, I decided to step it up a notch and give the über-awesome Cargo CMS a go. So far it’s been amazing. Loving it from top to bottom, so if you get a chance, be sure to apply for an account.

So, feel free to drop by the all new DiegoQuintana.com and check it out. Plus, I’d be deeply grateful if you let me know your thoughts on the site, the work, the blog or anything you feel like talking about with me at hello@diegoquintana.com

Thanks!

Filter017 is a Tokyo based design agency dedicated to making some lovely vector graphics and creative and fun solutions.

I became a big fan of their work a while ago and today I just got me one of their super hot wallets, so now I can go show off all over the place looking fresher than ever.

If you wanna see some insane vector talent drop by their official site, and if you wanna grab a piece of the action, go hit their BigCartel shop for some major goodie-fest.

Thanks to the guys at Filter017 for inspiring me and making my money-pulling-and-card-holding-experience hell of a lot more fun.
