foreword 9/14

In order to create a beautiful design, one must find a balance between both imagery and type. Choosing and using typefaces to compliment images does not always pose as an easy task. It requires great design aesthetic, knowledge of various typefaces and typographers, and how to compose type so it is both readable and legible. This book was created to showcase five different typefaces and their families. Ranging from old style to modern, Zen Type has a typeface for almost every occasion.

PETER MATTHIAS NOORDZIJ caecilia lt std roman 9/14

In 1961, Peter Matthias Noordzij was born. Growing up in The Hague in The Netherlands, Noordzij was destined to be a graphic designer. In the early 1980's, he studied at the Koninklijke Academie vor Beeldende Kunsten in The Hauge. There, he learned lettering under his father, Gerrit Noordzij, and created the typeface Caecilia. In 1986, he started working professionally as a typographer. Soon after, he began teaching type design at the art academy in The Hague. In 1991, Noordzij became responsible for the new Ensched Font Foundry in Haarlem.

NICOLAS JENSON adobe jenson pro regular 9/14

Nicolas Jenson was born approximately in 1420. Initially, Jenson started as the master of the French royal mint at Tours. In 1458, King Charles VII dispatched Jenson to Germany to learn the new art of printing. During his time in Germany, King Charles VII passed away and King Louis XI took the throne. Unwilling to work under the new king, Jenson decided not to return to France. Instead, he ventured to Venice in 1467 where he introduced the invention of printing to Italy. Until his death in 1480, Jenson worked in Italy printing and publishing. The typefaces he created were said to be the best of the Renaissance and perhaps of all time. In 1995, Robert Slimbach of the Adobe type design team designed Adobe Jenson Pro, based on Jenson's type, as a part of the Adobe Originals historical revivals.

FRANCESCO GRIFFO bembo std regular 9/14

Francesco Griffo was born around 1450 in Bologna, Italy. Griffo worked as a Venetian punch cutter. In 1495, he began working with Aldus Manutius cutting Greek alphabets. A year later, Griffo cut the alphabet for Pietro Bembo’s "De Aetna". In 1503, he cut an italic typeface for the printer Gershom Soncino. After working with others, in 1509, Griffo opened his own printing workshop in Bologna. He then cut his third italic typeface for his first publication. The typeface Bembo was cut by Griffo during his years. He died in Bologna, Italy in 1518.
