I am happy to introduce Minicus, a compressed modular typeface that was inspired by the lettering on a plaque in Amsterdam. The plaque marks the former business of Minicus (Ph.) Zeehandelaar (1883–1943)

One pixel grid. A whole brand.
For Appy, a London product studio for impact-driven startups, the wordmark, icons, 3D smile and Appy Pixel, its custom typeface, all come from the same grid.
Appy Pixel won Typography at the Online Design Awards.

Halevra is a brand identity I designed for a concept longevity and skin clinic in Marylebone.

For type, Source Serif 4 has the authority of a medical journal without feeling cold. Atkinson Hyperlegible Next was made with the Braille Institute for low-vision readers. Many members would be over 50, so being easy to read mattered more than looking like a spa.
The system covers the logo suite, a seamless pattern, logo motion, brand guidelines, stationery, signage, and web and app assets.
