Angleface FamilyAngleface is a distinctively modern typeface with rounded terminals and an interesting mix of curved and angular features.With initial thoughts of creating something tubular, I had in the back of my mind the kind of contemporary chrome furniture that became ubiquitous throughout the 1960s and that concept remained with me throughout the development process.Available in 2 … Read More
Marsh Scroll fontThe premise for this typeface was to base the letterforms on a rolled strip of paper. A simple enough idea in principle but one I hadn’t seen before.The effect was achieved by applying a suitably incised line following the curve at each turning point to convey the important three-dimensional aspects of a scroll.Marsh Scroll … Read More
Galerie type familyIncorporating a certain Gallic ‘je ne sais quoi’, Galerie is a chic & stylish sans serif, though you’ll notice some short tails with angled terminals acting rather like serifs, lending a sophisticated characteristic to its balanced proportions.Galerie’s large x-height makes it a very legible font family, available in 4 weights: Thin, Light, Medium … Read More

Tangential type familyTangential is a distinctive modern sans in 3 weights which was born out of a simple idea: beginning the project with a perfect circle to form the letter ‘o’, then squaring off one corner, ending up with a letterform I hadn’t seen before for that character; this for me was enough motivation to attempt … Read More

I played around with it, creating some pleasing letterforms and it soon became clear the design would translate into a complete alphabet, … Read More
Tulip fontI’ve had an interest in typography ever since my college days, even submitting my NDD thesis on the subject. The basic concept for this typeface stems from that early creative period, hence the obvious 60’s retro feel. It’s only recently that I’ve had the chance to fully carry through some of my dormant typographic ideas, … Read More
Flashback fontsFlashback is a trippy throwback concept comprising three psychedelic all caps type styles. All three fonts – Dropout, Rough Diamond and Thorny, evolved from experimenting with a cubic template devised as the basis for the retro display type series.I experimented with numerous shapes initially to see which forms lent themselves best to the negative spaces forming … Read More

Although the basic letterforms are the same as in the generic Somatype family, the introduction of slab-serifs to appropriate characters has transformed the typeface into something new, creating a completely different styling in the process and striking a pleasing … Read More

The same sliced angle is also applied to many of the terminals, creating a clean-cut styling throughout the family. Tilted versions emphasize the descriptive name further, with an implied cutting stance. Wider versions go even further still, … Read More
