Superfried Fonts 15 Type families | 36 Fonts
Typography has become a significant factor in my career, but this was a completely unintentional, organic process. As a kid I had no specific interest in type, but I was obsessed with logos. Consequently, It is now unsurprising that I now create brand identities for a living. Over the years I noticed I had accumulated a lot of rejected, unused typographic styles and experiments from branding projects. There was a lot of good work there, but how to make use of it?
Historically, creating typefaces was complicated and required expensive software. This changed with packages such as Glyphs, which was affordable and enabled me to take my designs straight across from Illustrator. With many of the distinct, unused styles I began expanding the character set to complete typefaces, or just the numbers to create personal projects.
This process led to the development of 15+ commercially available typefaces, and personal projects receiving press features and design awards. It has been invaluable to my progress and taught me to never let a good idea go to waste. You never know where it might take you.
As you might expect, Superfried typefaces are generally experimental by nature. Consequently, they are most suited to designers looking for new directions or starting points for brand identities rather than general-purpose use for the masses. With this in mind I decided to collate the complete collection in one designer bundle at a price point accessible for all.

Kapital – 8 Fonts | 2 Styles
When using many sans serif typefaces I found many to be very disappointing when used in caps. The character is often lost in the uppercase glyphs and as the weight increases the consistency in form can be heavily compromised. So I decided to create my own.
Kapital is a minimal, sophisticated uppercase sans. It features four weights – Light, Regular, Medium, and Demi Bold. There is also a stencil version of each weight.
