ABOUT







Bureau 205 (was: Trafik) [Damien Gautier]

Damien Gautier (b. 1971) studied typography in the Atelier de création typographique at l'Ecole Estienne, Paris. He co-founded Trafik, a type studio in Lyon. More recently, his fonts are distributed via 205 Corp and 205 TF, which he founded. He also teaches graphic design at Ecole Nationale Supérieure des beaux-arts de Lyon. He runs the publishing house Editions deux-cent-cinq which publishes books on graphic design and typography.

At Typotek, he designed LeQuincaillerie (fifties font, 2000), LeMenuiserie (2000), LeConfiserie (2000, an electronic panel font), LeConfiserie Couleur, L'ekran Dix (a pixel font), LeBoucherie-Ornament (2000), LeBeaune (1995-2011, a flared roman lettering typeface created at first for the town of Beaune in Burgundy), Alcala (1994).

For Salomon (the ski company brand font), Damien Gautier received a Trophée d'Or nomination at the Integraphic Congress in Paris in 2003.

MyFonts, where his foundry is called Trafik, and then Damien Gautier, then "205", Editions 205, and finally Bureau 205, sells these typefaces: Colonel (stencil), Laikran (pixel family), Le Bazar, Le Beaune, Le Chaufferie, Le Confiserie, Le Confiserie Couleur, Le Gendarmerie, Le Menuiserie, Le Quincaillerie, Pam (2005, counterless), Plaak (2013-2014, a large sans caps family inspired by French street name signs; co-designed with Olivier Raimbaud and Corentin Noyer), Robin (2010, a dingbat typeface with arrows, co-designed with Delphine Sigonney). In 2010, Gautier created Caporal (an elegant clean stencil face), Le Francois (a set of stylish capitals).

In 2009, Damien Gautier designed Bloo (a wedge-serifed typeface). Salomon is a corporate typeface family.

Typefaces of Damien Gautier and Quentin Margat in 2010: Amiral (cargo stencil), Alcala (started in 1994, finished in 2010, this text family is based on renaissance forms and was used to print a Bible).

With Quentin Margat, he created some typefaces in 2011 such as Maax (an information design sans family), Norr (styles include a didone, a slab serif, and two sanses), Colonel, and Beretta (dot matrix family).

In 2013, Damien Gautier designed Maax Mono and Maax Rounded, both at Editions 205.

In 2019, he published Plaax as an extension of Plaak. Subfamilies include Sathonay (super-condensed), Griffo, Pradel, Terme, Foch and Ney, from super-condensed to wide.

In 2021, Damien Gautier published the experimental sans typeface Heliuum in which letters can have different baseline heights.
