Font Soup - Student Type Foundry
Font Soup is an independent type foundry that is targeted at helping students and graduates break into the world of typeface design.
Submitted by PhilKiel.
Font Soup’ is an independent type foundry set up by 23-year-old Phil Kiel, from Merseyside, who is a graduate in Graphic Arts from the Liverpool School of Art & Design.
Every two months, Phil releases a selection of briefs to give designers the opportunity to develop their type skills. After completing a brief, designers can submit their fonts to Font Soup, which are then made available online for either free download or a small fee.
The idea behind Font Soup came from seeing other online type foundries gaining a lot of popularity but not being too friendly about opening their doors to submissions, so I decided to do it myself.
Font Soup is dedicated to providing support and encouragement to design students and graduates throughout the UK, and is not for making a profit.
