Allow me to introduce myself, I am Eka Rifqi Setiawan. Since 2020, I have been working as an Icon Designer and Illustrations dan have produced over 9000 design, under the store name Erifqizeicon. Recently, I have also delved into learning and producing my own fonts, establishing a Foundry named Erifqizefont.

Currently, at the age of 20, I have completed vocational education in Indonesia, majoring in Multimedia. Throughout my schooling, I studied various aspects of Audio Visual, including Video Editing, Animation, Graphic Design, and other computer-related subjects. It was during this time that I began learning about Graphic Design, both through formal education and self-study. I joined communities, asked questions, sought out friends, learned from YouTube, took e-courses, read numerous articles, and studied independently. Eventually, I found my specialization in Icon Design and am now expanding into Font Design.

Several Foundries have inspired me, including Creaty Pestudio, Eko Bimantara Font, and most recently, Zeenesia Studio. Zeenesia Studio has been a true mentor to me in font creation. I greatly admire the aesthetic appeal of their fonts and have even had the opportunity to meet them in person, learning firsthand about the font creation process.

I plan to focus on creating bold and symmetrical sans-serif display fonts, such as the ones I have already created, namely Propolish Rufftu and Surrealism Rose. Additionally, I intend to create cute and retro fonts, as I have a fondness for those styles. In designing fonts, I strive to make them unique and eye-catching, experimenting with various shapes and forms to create fonts that stand out and capture attention.

For font design, I utilize Affinity Designer and Fontforge. Although Fontforge is an open-source application, I find it to be powerful and capable of creating any type of font. I use Affinity Designer to create raw glyphs and previews. When designing previews, I aim for simplicity yet ensure that all the font's features, appearance, and functionality are accurately represented.

My interests lie in multimedia, particularly in computer-related fields. Design is my primary passion, followed by videography and photography as hobbies. I am also enthusiastic about content creation and even manage a YouTube channel dedicated to gadget reviews.

Thank you.
