ABOUT

Jonathan Hares

London-based designer (b. 1975) who graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2000, where he was a classmate of Laurent Brenner and Alex Rich. At Lineto, he designed the neat typewriter family LL Superstudio (2003), a clean digital version of the IBM Selectrix "12 Dual Gothic". Also at Lineto, he designed the artsy poster font Bart.

In the late 2000s, Jonathan moved to Lausanne, and in 2010, he launched the Swiss Design Award’s website, essentially establishing an online archive for their various activities. For many years, he has been advising the Federal Council of the Arts in design matters and has art directed many of their catalogues and publications. He won a gold medal at the Leipzig-based ‘Best Book Design from all over the World’ in 2015 for Architecture from the Arab World 1914–2014. More recently, he has designed publications for the Canadian Centre of Architecture in Montreal. In close collaboration with Cornel Windlin and Jürg Lehni, Jon designed the new Lineto website (2019).
