• Speaker at ATypI 2018 in Antwerp (together with Eloise Parrack) on a revival project summarized as follows: In November 2017 an international cohort on the Expert Class in Type Design, based in the UNESCO world heritage site of the Museum Plantin-Moretus, embarked upon a collaborative project to research and revive a Renaissance-era typeface of the Flemish punchcutter Hendrik van den Keere from the collection of Christophe Plantin. Comparing Van den Keere's well-known Real Romain (1575) and Ascendonica Romain (1577) with his Small Pica Roman (1578), and investigating the patterning, proportions, and details, our research led to the design of a revival using Small Pica Roman at 9-point Didot size as a departure. Evaluations of the approaches of working in metal and standardization in type design at different optical sizes were considered, and were contrasted to methods and tools of digital typeface design today. The unique and rich historic archive of punches, matrices, and printed materials provided an exciting basis for our research, leading to some surprising discoveries counter to our expectations and to accepted theories found in many typography and type design texts. This project provoked a wide range of interpretations, approaches, and opinions about how to create a contemporary usable digital typeface, whilst honouring and imagining the intentions of Van den Keere five centuries past.

Eric Mourier

Danish graphic designer, b. 1939, who was trained as a lithographer in 1961 at The Graphic College and in 2008 at Denmark's Media and Journalism College, specializing in graphic design. He then taught at the Grafische Højskole between 1966 and 1981 and set up his own drawing room with his wife Mette Mourier.

His type designs include the labyrinthine alphabet Mourier in 1971, which was revived by Sébastien Hayez in 2002 and published at the open source type foundry Velvetyne in Paris in 2011. Then, in 2020, Ukraininan designer Alex Ash (Alexander Kondratenko) proposed a Cyrillic alphabet expansion of the font, of which he had imagined the capitals. Ariel Martin Perez took this opportunity and developped lowercase letters for Latin and Cyrillic scripts (with feedback from Alex Ash for the Cyrillic), added diacritics and symbols, mastered the font and also created several sets of alternates.

Marit Angenita Otto

Dutch type designer who published the experimental typeface Jazmo in 2012 at URW: Jazmo is an offspring of an assignment I did for a Dutch architect. A classic building and coincidently the place of my studio in my hometown Zwolle, Netherlands, needed to be renovated. My job was to design the house numbers and signs for this building. This building I refer to was built in 1932 and designed according to the New objectivity architecture. Now it accommodates several artist and craftsmen and also houses students. In my design I used elements of the Art Nouveau.

In 2013, she published Smooth Buggaloo (URW++), a typeface that was inspired by the music of the sixties. Le Rock (2013, URW++) is a bouncy freeform display typeface. Labyrindo (2013, URW++) is inspired by Greek labyrinths.

In 2014, Marit published Pipeline (URW++), a gaspipe or paperclip typeface, Filistique (URW++, a flowing informal unconnected script typeface), and Nipon (URW++), a display typeface.

In 2015, still at URW++, she created the stylish display typeface Democrazia, the hybrid oriental/Arabic emulation typeface Eurabia, the display typeface family Kosmique, the meccano typeface C-Nation, the squarish stencil typeface Constructa, the squarish revolutionary typeface Picastro (the name is a contraction of Picasso and Castro; not to be confused with Leon Hulst's signage typeface Picastro, made a year earlier), and the display typeface New Daily.

Vince Connare
[Vincent Connare]

Vincent Connare (b. 1960, Boston) is an ex-painter turned type designer, who holds an MA in typeface design from the University of Reading in 1999. In the late eighties/early nineties Connare worked in the Ikarus, Intellifont and TrueType teams for Agfa/Compugraphic, and was one of the first type designers to learn TrueType hinting. Then he joined Microsoft, where he designed Trebuchet (1996) and Comic Sans (1995).

At Connare.com (Seattle), he designed the transitional book text typeface Magpie in 2000. Vincent Connare joined Dalton Maag in the spring of 2001 as production manager. At Dalton Maag he was part of the team that developed Ubuntu and Nokia Pure. His own Magpie typeface was published in 2008 at Dalton Maag as Magpie Typo.

Lesser known fonts by Connare include WildStyle (done for the Agfa Creative Alliance), Fabula (a font for children's texts in Basque, Catalan, Dutch, English, French, Frisian, Irish, Spanish and Welsh), Amaze (for mazes), and Vixar ASCII (1995, for Microsoft).

There is a movement by Isaac Stanfield to ban Comic Sans, discussed at Typographica and Typophile. Interview by Karen Huang. Piece by Emily Steel. Can Comic Sans look good in design? Check Markku Ylisirniö's Comic Sans poster. At Ampersand in 2011, he concluded "I just wanted to let it go; it just looks ridiculous" explaining why he was not involved with Ascender's Comic Sans Pro.

Zootype Foundry
[Luis Alberto Vargas Zuñiga]

Chilean type foundry offering both free and commercial fonts. It was founded by Rodrigo Araya Salas and Luis Alberto Vargas Zuñiga (Stigma Studio) in Santiago, Chile, in 2013. Rodrigo Araya Salas is also known in the type community as Rodrigo German, the founder of RAS Design.

The name Zootype should not to be confused with the trademarked name of Victor Garcia's award-winning font Linotype Zootype (1997). In fact, it is quite surprising that the Linotype lawyers have not caught up on this. Read up on the history of Victor Garcia's typeface.

• Free fonts: Laika (2013, a Cyrillic simulation comic book typeface by Rodrigo Araya), Monster Happy (2013, Rodrigo Araya), Guakala (2013, Rodrigo Araya).
• Pay fonts: Maze (2013, Luis Alberto Vargas), Mona (2013, a fat rounded sans by Rodrigo Araya), Könga (2013, a plump display sans by Rodrigo Araya and Andrey Kudryavtsev that won an award at Tipos Latinos 2016), Pony (2013, Rodrigo Araya), Alboroto (2013, a hand-drawn poster typeface by Rodrigo Araya), Loyola (2013, a titling sans by Rodrigo Araya).
