Plamen Motev

Type designer based in Sofia, Bulgaria. As a student working with Fontfabric in Sofia, Bulgaria, Plamen Motev designed the free circle-themed slightly condensed retro typeface Phenomena (done together with Radomir Tinkov) and the free 8-style narrow grotesque family Akrobat for Latin and Cyrillic in 2016.

In 2017, Plamen Motev and Svetoslav Simov co-designed Uni Neue, a total remake of Fontfabric's earler typeface Uni Sans (2009).

He was part of the Fontfabric team that designed the 521-font family Zing Rust, Zing Sans Rust and Zing Script Rust in 2017.

Typefaces from 2018: Gilam (by Ivan Petrov, Plamen Motev and Svetoslav Simov: based on DIN, but more geometric and with obliquely cut terminals).

Typefaces from 2019: Panton Rust and Panton Rust Script (by Plamen Motev, Stan Partalev and Ventsislav Djokov).

Typefaces from 2020: Alkes (by Plamen Motev, Nikolay Petroussenko, Kaja Slojewska at Fontfabric: a 14-style text typeface for long passages, designed to harmonize between Latin, Greek and Cyrillic, and featuring a generous x-height, wide letter spacing, large open counters and angled stress contrast so that the typeface is quite readable and friendly).

Typefaces from 2021: Silverstone (Display, Text) (2021). A custom type system for the Silverstone raceway and British Motorsports by Plamen Motev and Ventislav Dzhokov at Fontfabric.

In 2022, Vika Usmanova and Plamen Motev co-designed the wayfinding sans family Ways at Fontfabric. Still in 2022, Plamen Motev and Pavel Pavlov released the vampire-serifed variable typeface family Gwen at Fontfabric.
