Need something that doesn't exist yet?
Retail type is a compromise by definition — it has to work for everyone. Custom type only has to work for you.
A family drawn from scratch for your brand, owned exclusively by you and never sold here. Scope drives the price more than anything: number of weights, character set, and whether you need italics and extended language support.
You already like one of these but need something it doesn’t have yet — a heavier weight, a condensed cut, a new texture, Cyrillic or Greek, or a set of alternates specific to your wordmark. Cheaper than starting over and faster to deliver.
Custom drawn letterforms for a wordmark, not a font — a finite set of characters, tuned precisely for one lockup. Delivered as vectors you own outright. Often the right answer when you only need eleven letters to be perfect.
These are starting points, not quotes. Every project gets a fixed price in writing before any drawing begins — no hourly billing, no scope surprises.
Conversation
What the type has to do, where it lives, what’s gone wrong with what you’re using now. Usually one call. Free.
Direction
Three or four drawn directions in a handful of characters — enough to judge the idea, not so many that we’re polishing the wrong one.
Drawing
The chosen direction becomes a full character set, spaced and kerned, with rounds of review against your real materials.
Delivery
Production files, webfonts, and a license that says you own it. Plus a specimen you can hand to your team.
Who this is for
Brands where the typeface is doing real identity work — where being recognisable at a glance matters more than being cheap to license.
Who it isn’t for
If you need one nice display face for one campaign, buy a retail family here and keep the money. I’ll tell you that on the call rather than after the invoice.
Exclusivity
Exclusive means exclusive. A custom face never appears in this catalogue, isn’t shown in this portfolio without your say-so, and isn’t quietly reworked into a retail release later.
