By popular request, here’s the first colour drop of uchi’s Typographic Periodic Table – charcoal grey on a women’s bamboo T shirt.
Typographic Periodic Table of Elements
There are many styles of type and many classification systems – defined by their visual characteristics (stroke contrast, serif shape, etc) and their historical development or reference. Here, I’ve tried to match typefaces over the ages into their main classifications within the element groups on the Periodic Table. Also, except for the Lanthanoids and Actinoids (Glyphic, Script, Blackletter and Graphic faces) and, where possible, in each element group, the typefaces are in roughly in date order from the top to bottom. There are some notable exceptions for aesthetic reasons. For example, Helevtica was made in 1957, but it had to be Hydrogen!
Want to know your serif from your slab-serif? Read on for a brief description of each type style.

Here are the first two T shirts from the new Gods on the Earth album of men and women’s tees. More buddha T shirts and other deities to come. Get in touch and let me know what you think.
Known as the Fat Buddha or Laughing Buddha, Hotei is one of Japan’s Seven Gods of Luck. He is the magnanimous god of contentment and happiness, guardian of children, and in recent times, the patron of bartenders and restaurateurs. He carries a large bag of food and drink which never empties, which he uses to feed the poor and needy. The Japanese spelling of “Hotei” literally means “cloth bag.”
Hotei is usually shown holding a Chinese “wish giving” fan called an oogi 扇, and either seated or sleeping on his bag, but also dancing, walking or pointing at the moon. Sometimes, he is shown surrounded by a group of children, romping and squealing in delight around his jolly shape.
