Of all places, I had to meet him on instagram. His feed, minimalistic, clean yet expressive and communicative was a breathe of fresh air in a world instagrammed food. His website is even more revelatory of the things he does. And by God, he answers to you if you write him despite the number of his fans. Gabriel takes design, specifically typography, to new realms. His latest series, a monogram of three letters embodies this esthetic - something which appears simple but which is actually a labor which has taken hours of intensive work and required complex conceptualization. TJC are my own initials - anyone who got an email from me will attest to how I sign using them and Gabriel kindly obliged to doing them for me!
