Typism Book Selfie Archive

Aug 17, 2020

In 2013, with the first publication of the now annual Typism Book, the Typism selfie was born. Fast forward to now, with six editions of the Typism Book and over 400 #typismbookselfies, we thought we'd look back at some of our favourites! 


 Typism Book One

Ahhh the first Typism Book selfie we shared back in 2013 was by Kate Pullen. Here the #typismbookselfies hashtag was born! 

Our second #typismbookselfies was of  Janice Law

Sidenote: can we all reminisce on the filters back in the day! 

Emma Holmes, normally not one for selfies, made an exception to take this #typismbookselfie.

Our final #typismbookselfies for Typism Book One was from Cass Deller.


Typism Book Two

Kicking off the #typismbookselfies for Typism Book Two was Rachel Chu.

Our first double #typismbookselfie from Chavilah and Karl.

Joel Felix made this awesome video to show his 3 submissions that made it into book two.
