His work includes acclaimed families such as Brandon Grotesque, Pluto and Reklame Script, and he also undertakes bespoke type design assignments for clients like Lufthansa, Volkswagen or Hyundai. The studio’s mission is to produce “fonts of the highest quality, optically and technically,” blending playful forms with professional utility.
