We're working with Monotype to bring you a stimulating typographic destination – our glossy new Inspired by Typography section.

Monotype host one of the oldest and richest typography archives in the world. We'll be exploring it online over the coming months, but you if you can't wait, you can see it yourself at their Pencil to Pixel exhibition, which run from 16/19-23 November, at Metropolitan Wharf, Wapping. You can sign up for a guided tour here.

To coincide with this we gave you have an opportunity to win a limited edition signed and stamped Gill Sans Condensed reproduction print.

The winning entry came from @MeKirstyE:
