TFAW featured on the Kiosque website

The fantastic website "the Kiosque" has featured our last typeface about union terrace gardens and ACSEF's plans to concrete over them (but not concrete over them, according to their publicity).

We thank the Kiosque for the support and help, and for being an upstanding organ (!) in the Aberdeen City & Shire's cultural front.
