Koi: an op-art display font

A unique inline/outline font in three weights.

A unique inline/outline font in three weights, each character is created from a single continuous line. Good for redesigning old-school, lower league football programmes, so I’m anticipating some significant demand.

Klamp 105 and 205: can do just about anything

A streamlined, geometric sans-serif, making the ordinary look beautiful.

A streamlined, geometric sans-serif, clean and legible at small sizes. It will fulfil routine tasks with panache, making the ordinary look beautiful. It comes in two styles, with character variations. I’m tempted to get all entrepreneurial in the travel industry, just to see Klamp adorning tickets – I like a good ticket.

K-haus 105 and 205: Bauhaus inspired fonts

In 2019, the Bauhaus was 100 years old. Time for a Bauhaus inspired font – two in fact.

2019, marked 100 years since the Bauhaus opened in Weimar, Germany, changing the course of design for ever. As a designer who’s been influenced by its remarkable output, I thought it was time for a font (in two variations), influenced by the work of Herbert Bayer, during his time at the Bauhaus.

Keymer: an everyday sans

Elegant and timeless it can be put to any task, it’s a bit like concrete — the glue that holds stuff together, often unnoticed yet beautiful when used well.

This is serious. Talbot Type Keymer is a heavyweight humanist sans serif in seven weights. It’s elegant and timeless and can be put to any task, it’s a bit like concrete — the glue that holds stuff together, often unnoticed yet beautiful when used well.
