Carte Blanche literally means ‘Blank Ticket’. Yeah, yeah, it is also a very 007-ish catchphrase, but I wanted to give this elegant font a ‘stylish’ name and Carte Blanche popped up. All glyphs were hand drawn on a rather expensive
Quiza Pro is a geometric display sans with added playfulness created around a single dot. Its peculiar rounded diamond shape has inspired many additional details such as similar cuts in diagonal strokes, or occasional serifs in ascenders and capital letters.
Aye, me lovelies, this be Scurvy Dog, a grand font! The letters were etched into a dead man’s chest with a blunt rapier, pickled in brine and covered in spew. Ye could be using this crafty penmanship for yer logs
I am reading a great book by David Mitchell, called Number 9 Dream. One of the characters is called Buntaro, so I decided to call my new inky font after him. Like the book, Buntaro is quite unusual: it has
Food Truck package is a wonderful set of fonts. During my recent trip to Japan, I stumbled upon a food truck / street food festival in Nara. Besides drinking the best cup of coffee ever (seriously, it was THAT good!),
TT Bells combines the elegant softness of antigua with a complex and daring temper reflected in straight stroke terminals and arrow headed serifs. The family is based on broad nib, which was typically used for old style fonts and creates
Aardvark Dreams… Yes, I guess this is the first font ever to have an aardvark in its name! Aardvark Dreams is a bit of an unusual font. It is didone-ish in style, but the glyphs are slightly warped, giving them
Hey Comrade is a very messy script font. It was made with a bamboo satay skewer (which I had soaked in ink). Hey Comrade would look good on book covers, packaging and in magazines. Comes with a 5-year plan of
Chocolatte font is a yummy, creamy script font, made entirely with chocolate.. No, sorry, that’s not true. It was made with a pen, but I thought I’d create a nice urban myth. Chocolatte is a pretty useful font: you can
Kessel 205 is inspired by the classic, geometric sans-serifs such as Futura, but has shallower ascenders and descenders for a more compact look, and features an art deco influence with sharp points at the apex of many characters, lowered crossbars

Clareza means “Clarity” in Portugese. That was exactly the goal in creating this font. We managed to create a font that is crisp and extremely legible at all sizes but then comes to life in an interesting and unusual way
Running Hipster is a tall, thin and all caps font with a funny name. The upper and lower case letters differ and can be mixed. You don’t necessarily have to use it to market your free range sheep woollen jumpers
I just returned from a short holiday in Japan. I stayed in hostels and small guesthouses and noticed a peculiar thing they all had in common: they love little notes, telling you where to go, what to do, how to
I believe it was Picasso who had a Blue Period between 1901 and 1904. It seems that I have one myself – really not comparing myself to Picasso btw… Recently I created Blue Sheep font and now this one: Little
A new year has begun, new resolutions have been made. Fresh ideas are popping up and a new life is about to begin. All in all, I figured New Beginnings was the perfect name for my first font in 2016.
