Jason Smith
Jason Smith started his design career as an intern at Monotype when he was 18 years old, studying under type designers Robin Nicholas and Patricia Saunders.
He established Fontsmith in 1997, and since then it has steadily gained a reputation for producing work which Jason describes as "Very human and full of character", bringing style and personality to the business of crafting 'typographic identity'.
Perhaps best known outside design circles for bespoke fonts created for clients such as Channel 4, the Post Office, and ITV, Fontsmith is currently focussing on expanding its library of "fresh and exclusive" downloadable fonts.
