ABOUT







Cowan Design Associates [Gene Cowan]

In the early nineties, Gene Cowan at Cowan Design Associates created some interesting fonts, such as the "Simpson's" font Groening (1991) based on the handwriting of Matt Groening, as well as CableDingbats, Crillee (1998), and Krupper (within that font, we read Trek TNG Credits---it seems identical to Crillee). Well, the true original font for The Simpsons was done by Mark Heliger and Paul Feldman in 1990, so Groening is a derived font. Akbar (1996-2000) is a later adaptation by Jon Bernhardt of Groening (1991). Cowan is also credited with Cable Dingbats. No fonts on Gene's web page, but Google will locate them for you.
