About Insect Jar Font Family


My son Boris has an insect jar; one of those plastic containers with a magnifying glass lid. He and his bestie often run around in the garden looking for critters. They then place them inside the jar, together with some green leaves and forget all about them. I always feel sorry for these insects and help them escape.

Insect Jar is a really thin, all caps font based on a really old font of mine called Sleepy Time. It comes with extensive language support, a bold version and an ant.

About Kitchen Table Type Foundry

Kitchen Table Type Foundry is run by me, David Kerkhoff. I also run Hanoded Fonts, which some of you may actually have heard of! :-0KTTF was created as an inspirational boost; a playground for new ideas and possibly font designs that may not fit the Hanoded Fonts brand - but I am not too strict about this rule. Since I design all the fonts, you may come across similarities - but that, unfortunately, is not something I can avoid. After all, it is just me, my laptop computer and the kitchen table I sit at when I design fonts and for which this foundry was named.
