Min-Joo Ham (Seoul, South Korea, b. 1985) is a type designer, typographer and a graphic designer who studied graphic design at the Seoul Women's University (2005-2009). After that, she designed typefaces at the Korean type foundry S-Core. In 2015, she graduated from the TypeMedia program in Den Haag, and settled in Berlin. Future Fonts link. During her Bachelor's studies, she created the experimental Latin / Hangul typeface Bang. She designed Core Label (2012, S-Core": with Hyun-Seung Lee). Hyun-Seung Lee, Dae-Hoon Hahm and Min-Joo Ham jointly designed the programmers' typeface Eco Coding (2012) and the huge Core Sans, Core Sans G (geometric), Core Sans M and Core Sans N, Core Sans NR, and Core Sans N SC families (supported codepages are MS Windows 1252 Latin1, MS Windows 949 Korean (Hangul) consisting of 11,172 letters and KS Symbols (Korean Symbols)). In 2013, Hyun-Seung Lee, Dae-Hoon Hahm and Min-Joo Ham jointly designed the layered type system Core Circus---as a reaction to the hugely successful Trend typeface by Latinotype, I guess. The slab version is Core Magic (2014). See also Core Circus Rough (2014) and Core Magic Rough (2014), both jointly designed by Hyun-Seung Lee, Dae-Hoon Hahm and Dong-Kwan Kim. Core Slab M (2013) is a 31-style companion of Core Sans M---it is a soft rounded slab with some seriffy tails mixed in with standard slab terminals. Core Mellow (2013) is a condensed organic rounded sans family that comes in 21 weights. In 2014, Hyun-Seung Lee, Dae-Hoon Hahm and Min-Joo Ham co-designed Core Sans D, Core Sans A, Core Rhino, Core Narae Pro (a Comic Sans alternative) and Core Deco (a 14-style art deco family). The rounded versions of the Core Sans E, D and G families were designed in 2015 by Hyun-Seung Lee, Dae-Hoon Hahm and Dong-Kwan Kim under the names Core Sans ES, Core Sans DS, and Core Sans GS. In 2015, Min-Joo Ham designed the Latin / Hangul typeface Koppla (2015) as a graduation project from the TypeMedia program of KABK, Den Haag. Koppla comes in title, bold, book, text and italic styles. In 2017, at Fust & Friends, where she is part of the founding group of designers, she published the layered colorable retro script typeface family Teddy, which is loosely inspired by an alphabet drawn by Ernst Bentele in 2017. The family was awarded at TDC Typeface Design 2018. In 2019, she released Dunkel Sans at Future Fonts and wrote: Dunkel Sans is a buzzing heavy weight display font, perfect to leave a fierce impression on posters and signage applications. Seol Sans (2018) is a full Korean font family developed by Minjoo Ham, Akira Kobayashi and the Monotype Design Team. It features Neue Frutiger (an extension of Adrian Frutiger's Frutiger) for its Latin glyphs, and works harmoniously with Neue Frutiger World and Monotype's CJK typefaces: Tazugane Gothic (Japanese) and M XiangHe Hei (Chinese). Variable fonts published in 2022: M XiangHe Hei SC Pro Variable, M XiangHe Hei SC Std Variable, M XiangHe Hei TC Variable, Seol Sans Variable, Tazugane Gothic Variable, Tazugane Info Variable. In 2020, she released Blazeface Hangeul at Future Fonts. In 2020, Minjoo Ham and Mark Frömberg set up Hypertype in Berlin, a studio that specializes in Latin and Hangul scripts. They promptly designed Neutronic and Neutronic Hangul, which are proportional descendants of Mark Frömberg's earlier monospaced typeface, Gintronic. At Github, Minjoo Ham and Mark Frömberg published the Latin / Hangul typeface family Hahmlet (2020). Hahmlet is inspired by a poster for the Korean Hamlet movie from the 1940s, created by an unknown letterer. Free download at Google Fonts. Adobe link. |
