100FOR10 – Art books by artists worldwide

Paul Richards is a type-loving designer who loves B&W, Letraset, and pops of colour. His personal work mixes analogue and digital tools, and he enjoys film and print as much as pixels, photocopiers and fax machines as much as his Mac.
Often prone to doodling, scribbling and making up children’s stories, he blew all the money he earned from his first professional design job as a teenager on a pair of sneakers, and doesn’t regret it.

Hugo Moura, also known as Xesta, is a Portuguese graphic designer, lettering designer, and calligrapher whose main focus is creating unique visual identities, incorporating various styles and techniques from the typographic universe into his projects.
Based in Porto and with a background directly linked to graffiti, Xesta unifies art and design in his work, and is constantly collaborating and actively participating with other creatives.
From 2013 to 2018, he was a resident member and researcher at We Came From Space, where he began teaching several calligraphy and lettering workshops. He is co-author of the books “Calligraphy Manuals – Blackletter Fraktur” and “Calligraphy Manuals – Blackletter Rotunda,” published by Itemzero.
In 2024, he was invited to teach as an assistant professor, Communication Design Project and Typography at ESMAD – Escola Superior de Media Artes e Design.
