Rise of the Cellphone
Rise of the Cellphone is a Top Pick on Fontstruct, as well as the winner of their competition on the theme “illustration”. The design traces the evolution of cellphones from 1983 to the present. Judge, Gustavo Ferreira, wrote about the entry—

A little masterpiece: well-researched and well-built, informative and useful font.
I like how it is self-contained, a limited collection of existing iconic objects, like a small museum.
