Head First Design [Morice Kastoun]

Kastoun (b. 1977) lives in Melbourne and runs Head First Design. His typefaces:

• Codesigner with Stephen Banham (The Letterbox) of Morice (2005, a paperclip face done with Niels Oeltjen).
• In 2009, he published the free grotesque family Oceania.

• Barefoot Gotham is a handlettering font custom made for the Barefoot brewery.
• Kushtie (2010).
• The Middlecase family (2015): the upper part of each glyph comes from the uppercase, and the lower half from the lowercase. Followed by Middlecase Next in 2017.
• Sentic (2017). A geometric sans in Text and Display versions. Followed by Sentic Display (2020).
• Mezza Display (2019).
• Briery (2020). A sharp-edged display sans family in which many glyphs are held together by articulation points.
• Squiggle (2021). A plump rounded inline sans.
• Larrikin (2021). A 12-style distressed typeface that includes two scripts. The ten other styles imitate hand-carved woodcut lettering.
• Ryker (2022). A 24-style monoline sans with a single stroke theme.
