Setup (was: Urtd)
[Ondrej Jób]
Bratislava-based type and graphic designer (b. 1984, Czechoslovakia). He graduated from AFAD Bratislava, and in 2009 from the Type and Media program at KABK, where he designed Doko, a serifed text family derived from handlettering. Earlier, he created the Preissig-look family Kompilat (2007), and the monospace font Monoxil (2007). In 2008, Peter Bilak, Eike Dingler, Ondrej Jób, and Ashfaq Niazi created the 21-style family History at Typotheque: Based on a skeleton of Roman inscriptional capitals, History includes 21 layers inspired by the evolution of typography. These 21 independent typefaces share widths and other metric information so that they can be recombined. Thus History has the potential to generate thousands of different unique styles. History 1, e.g., is a hairline sans; History 2 is Peignotian; History 14 is a multiline face; History 15 is a stapler face, and so forth. He founded Urtd in 2009 in Liptovsky Hradok, Slovakia, and renamed it Setup in 2016. He sells these fonts: the ION family (2010, LED simulation typefaces), Outliner (2008, architectural lettering), and the icon sets Ico Weather (2010), Ico Time (2010) and Ico Phone (2010). Klimax Bold (2008) is in the ultra-ultra-fat art deco category, and won an award at TDC2 2009 for display face. See also Klimax Plus (2009). Creations in 2011: Clip (2011) is a 4-style Opentype-feature-loaded paperclip family. Typefaces made in 2012: Remi (useful monospaced geometric sans family), Bismuth (angular techno family), Bismuth Stencil. In 2013, Ondrej Job published the script typeface Odesta. Odesta won an award at TDC 2014. Typefaces from 2014: Woodkit (a series of grungy wood emulation typefaces for Latin, Greek and Cyrillic published at Typotheque; Woodkit won second prize in the TDC 2015 Type Design competition), Pexico and Pexico Micro (pixel typefaces). Woodkit won an award at Modern Cyrillic 2014. In 2020, he designed the warm sligtly flared typeface family Clarinet. See also Clarinet Wide (2020). Corporate typefaces by Ondrj Job include Milkface, About Face and Fox Sports Netherlands. MyFonts link. Typedia link. Behance link. Klingspor link. Village link. Future Fonts link. |
