Dutch type designer. Started the
LettError virtual type foundry with
Just van Rossum, with whom he worked at
MetaDesign. Fame came with the release of
Beowolf (co-designed with van Rossum), a font whose ragged edges shift randomly each time you print the font. Another font of his,
Kosmik, has a version that flips between three alternates for each character for a more friendly, hand-drawn feel. Most of his fonts are published by
FontFont. He is a key developer on the Robofog project with van Rossum and
Petr van Blokland.
