ABOUT







Chris Lebeau

Joris Johannes Christiaan Lebeau was a Dutch designer, 1878-1945. His art deco lettering can be found in these creations: Kunsthandel Willem Brok (1919, portrait poster cut in wood), Winterboek 24-25 Wereldbibliotheek (1924, front cover), Ultraphoon Huis (1920s, record sleeve), Ultraphoon (1920s, record sleeve), Programma (1920s, program), and Openbare Arbeidsbemiddeling (1928, poster). The black display caps typeface Brok (1995, Elizabeth Cory Holzman, Font Bureau) was based on the Kunsthandel Willem Brok poster. Nick Curtis claims that his typeface Haarlem Nights (2006) is based on a 1920 Dutch poster for Public Placement Services by Johan Dijsktra. However, de Voogt says that Haarlem Nights is based on Lebeau's 1928 poster, Openbare Arbeidsbemiddeling.
