Type design

A custom font can be the glue for your entire brand; from product to marketing.

Custom typefaces are a powerful way to create a unique voice for brands across both marketing as well as product. We are specialists in the design of logotypes as well as custom typefaces.

We’ve designed custom fonts in every major writing system in the world; including Latin, Pan-African, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese. 

Our typefaces have been recognized in many prestigious competitions and publications including the Type Directors Club, the AIGA Archives, D&AD and the 365 Typography Calendar.

The following are a few examples of custom typefaces we’ve designed for corporate commissions, as well as typefaces we’ve designed for sale. Many of our projects are confidential. Contact us for detailed case studies for well known brands and products.
