"Houschka has the humanist qualities reminiscent of Gill and Johnston but is quite unique. It is more monolinear with rounded corners giving it a softer appearance, and has a few interesting character quirks like the capitals A, G, Q, W and lower case u and w. Each weight contains alternate versions without the rounded A, W and w and with old-style numerals.About the designer:
Nick Cooke started as a lettering artist in London in 1982 crafting type by hand for book jackets. He doesn't miss the pre-digital age and puts his success down to 'obsession, perseverance, thought and effort'. He controls every aspect of the creative process with particular emphasis placed on consistent character shapes, accurate positioning and extensive kerning. Nick's G-Type foundry was launched in November 1999 to develop innovative, original, but most importantly, usable typefaces.
