It's no coincidence how The Northern Block's signature typeface became part of video-game history through a connection with Tom Clancey's The Division. Without a shadow of a doubt, two dimensions meet three dimensions in a harmonic virtual world. But don't take my word for it, take Sarah Burgess's word for it. A talented writer from the North East who's been able to weave a story of a precisely drawn font with the industrial environments of Ubisoft's video-game masterpiece.
