New CakeType release: Vandertak CAPSLOCK!

As its name suggests, Vandertak CAPSLOCK is an all-caps version of “Vandertak”. But it is also much more than that. Referencing the architectural origins of the typeface, the five “stackable” styles have a dimensional look.

This is Frivolity—my very first attempt at designing a serious font. The file says it was from 1996, so almost 30 years ago. What was your first attempt?

COMING SOON! Rigby Mono!

Jan-Willem van der Looij (not on Bluesky) and I letterpress printed an art poster for the football match between FC Eindhoven and Vitesse. For the poster I made two linocuts, one with vertical stripes (both clubs have stripes on their home jerseys) and one with text. We think the result looks great.

Weird type in use find: PSV Sans used on a bag filled with cheese balls.

Dit is in ieder geval de bruingemarmerde schildwants die ik begin november tegenkwam in Kerkrade. Fascinerende kever.

This toilet sign I made in 2002 using ironing beads. On the sign you see Capibara Kees – designed for my Type and Media graduation project – peeing. Still a great sign… I think.
