I became interested in font design after living in Japan, I would practice my Japanese by reading signage and then later comparing Japanese signage to late 20th century American commercialisation of Motel, Hotel and commercial signage. It wasn't until I went back and studied Graphic Design in 2006 at Central Saint Martins in London that I became intrigued in the process of designing fonts. There we mainly studied typography and understood the context of typefaces and their application. No one could actually teach us how to design fonts or what programs to use so I made it my goal to design and master the genre myself. I had designed a few type faces before Anastas over the last 5 years but Anastas defines me as a designer and it is the one I want to release first. I have more fonts that I can release later but I will be working on the Anastas font family in the mean time
