Loek Schönbeck
Dutchman born in 1949. When he published his thesis Sunbowl or Symbol, as a book in 1998, Loek designed a typeface that strived to hit the perfect balance of Latin and Greek, Elyade. It won him the Max Reneman award. This is not to say that the Dutch type community liked Elyade. It was blasted by both Frank E. Blokland and Jan Middendorp, who says that the type's frills attract too much attention and that the overall colour in text sizes is rather weak. A sample is shown on page 305 of Dutch Type by Jan Middendorp. |
