ABOUT

YX Type [Yuexin Huo]

During his studies at Rhode Island School of Design, Yuexin Huo (Glendale, CA) created the text typeface family Monark (2018) and Monark Neue (2019). Other typefaces include Hourglass (2018), Slab (2018: an angular typeface-not a slab serif), Stonehenge (2018: an angular typeface) and Hotel (2018).

In 2019, he set up YX Type, and promptly published Monarky. He writes: Rooted in Fyodor Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment, it captures the anguish and distortion and suppresses them into ruthless letterforms. Top-heavy stems, heavy serifs, and low-contrast forms are all extractions of Dostoevsky's dilemma. Still in 2019, he added the 14-style sans family Hua.

Typefaces from 2022: Blizka (an angular serif inspired by calligraphy; 13 styles), Promea (a 14-style grotesk).
