Type Design & Letterforms

I design custom fonts, letterforms, and typographic systems — from individual glyphs and monograms to complete, production-ready type families built for long-term use.

Summary

Type design defines how language is seen, read, and remembered.

I design custom typefaces, lettermarks, and typographic systems for branding, publications, exhibitions, and identity-driven projects. This work spans full font families, symbolic glyphs, and expressive letterforms, all crafted with attention to spacing, structure, and durability.

The focus is on clarity, character, and longevity — typography that functions reliably while carrying a distinct visual voice.

Service Overview

I offer type design services ranging from individual glyphs, monograms, and custom letterforms to full production-ready typefaces crafted for clarity and long-term use.

My work is style-agnostic — able to move cleanly from delicate serif structures to bold, energetic shapes — and includes lettermarks and typographic systems designed for branding, publication, and identity.

Font Family Design

I design complete, professional typefaces built for real-world use. This includes full character sets, consistent stroke logic, spacing, kerning, and production-ready font files suitable for print, web, and digital platforms.

Each type family is developed as a cohesive system, designed to remain readable, adaptable, and visually stable across long-term use.

Lettermarks & Glyphs

I design stylized typographic logos, emblems, and symbolic glyphs — typography used as identity, storytelling, or structural ornament.

These marks function as condensed expressions of tone and meaning, often serving as anchors within larger visual systems.

Alphabets & Logograms

I design letterforms across writing systems, including phonetic alphabets and logographic structures used in symbolic, fictional, or non-phonetic contexts.

This work draws from historical writing systems, calligraphy, and typographic construction, resulting in scripts that feel coherent, intentional, and internally consistent.

Font Curation

I help shape the typographic voice of brands, institutions, and projects by selecting, refining, or developing type styles that unify tone, function, and long-term clarity.

When needed, I create novel variations that become part of a brand’s visual DNA — extending beyond decoration into structure.

Colors in the Sky

Colors in the Sky is my visual arts and design studio — the umbrella for my work across art, design, layout, and modern presentation, including the growing convergence of visual culture and technology.I’ve worked extensively with top-tier museums and galleries across the United States, contributing to projects involving artists such as Mary Cassatt, John Singer Sargent, and Pablo Picasso. My production experience includes over 10,000 pages of book and exhibition layouts for leading publishers, distributed internationally.

Alongside this institutional work, I maintain a hands-on practice as an illustrator and concept artist, and as a web developer delivering close to one hundred professional websites for businesses, cultural organizations, and public institutions. The studio reflects a commitment to visual clarity, production rigor, and designs that hold up under real-world constraints.
