| Brian Willson | Patricia Lillie | Lars Bergquist | Jack Yan | Jure Stojan | Antonio Gonzülez de Santiago | Our type designers are few but multi-faceted.
Brian Willson backed into type design through the side dooror so he says. A self-described "impostor" in the type world, Willson has no formal training, started designing fonts in mid-life, but nevertheless has been invited to speak at TypeCon, typo[media] 2000, and other type industry events, much to his astonishment. His interest and specialty are old penmanship fonts and historical simulations. Type by Brian Willson:
Patricia Lillie, is the designer of Whimsy, Alleycat and more for Eyewire. Type by Patricia Lillie:
After a third of a century in the publishing and printing business, Lars Bergquist set to work creating what he had been missing for a long time: text typefaces that visually stand comparison with those cut during the classical periods of typography. The Type Quarry is proud to be the U.S. distributor of his fonts. Type by Lars Bergquist:
Jack Yan is arguably Australasia's best-known and most prolific typeface designer. His expertise includes type work for multinational corporations, fonts for campaigns and specialist software. The Type Quarry is proud to include the JY&A Fonts range. WEBSITE | Type by Jack Yan:
Based in Pesnica, Slovenia, Jure Stojan is the designer behind JY Koliba. The Type Quarry is the first distributor to feature JY Koliba amongst its offerings. WEBSITE | Type by Jure Stojan:
A cartoonist who has worked for El Pais, Antonio Gonzülez de Santiago developed his comic book styles to complement the Spanish-language editions of American strips. His first design for JY&A Fonts, JY Comic Pro, exhibits a fun and free style that is also in keeping with JY&A's aim of producing timeless and practical typefaces.
