Austrian foundry (est. 2008) located in Vienna, and run by Roland Hörmann (b. 1976, Krems, Austria), who did some pixel fonts in the nineties for the Commodore64, and is presently art director and graphic designer. In 2007, he created Eltaus, an art nouveau font. Hörmann created the free brushy blackletter grunge typeface Adhesive Nr. Seven (2008), and the connected fifties style script typeface Luxus Brut (2009), and the simple handwriting family Neonoir (2010). In 2011, he published the graffiti typeface Whatka. In 2012, Roland Hörmann and Felix Auer co-designed the refined didone fashion mag display typeface Aquus (+the outline version, Aquus Linearis). In 2014, Roland completely reworked Luxus Brut and published Luxus Brut Sparkling, a luxurious high-contrast calligraphic script typeface. In 2015, he continued in the tradition of outstanding and striking display types by publishing Gloss Drop in the Treefrog genre. He writes: This is not a Barbie Script dolled up for the next beauty contest. It is imperfection and naivety dripping from every letter that makes this font stand out. An enviable choice for magazine headers, book covers or record covers. Works also well as a companion to hand-drawn or painted illustrations. Gloss Drop can even rock your wedding designs if they are seeking for something that makes a difference. Typefaces from 2018: Antipol (a reverse stress sans typeface family). |
