Underware is a typography collective founded in 1999 by Akiem Helming, Bas Jacobs and Sami Kortemäki.
Underware’s typefaces stand out for their unique aesthetic and elaborate quality. In addition to designing fonts (by hand), they teach typography and regularly publish.
Studio Dumbar (part of Dept) is an international agency with a Dutch background and a diverse portfolio – from business and government to culture and non-profit.
Their projects range from the visual identity for the Dutch Police, Adidas, Futurenatural, Alzheimer Netherlands and the Van Gogh museum to initiating and designing DEMO – Design in Motion Festival.
Grilli Type was founded in 2009 by Noel Leu and Thierry Blancpain. They offer original typefaces with a contemporary aesthetic rooted in Swiss tradition.
Since the lockdown, they have been teaching the basics of type design through their Instagram channel in a series called “GT Academy”.
Autobahn takes the opportunity with every assignment to expand their new experimental mindset for typography.
Craft plays an important role as they experiment with materials and production methods.
