There is rarely a better set-up than having a group of friends dive into their common passion and create a business together-provided ego doesn’t get in the way. That’s just what the founders behind Typejockeys did. After connecting at university and studying graphic design, Anna Fahrmaier, Thomas Gabriel and Michael Hochleitner each went on to live their individual adventures, and eventually met back up in Vienna in 2008 to create a graphic design studio with a special focus on lettering and type design.
Though they offer all of the traditional services of a graphic design studio, it is the fonts they have created over the years that have become favourites among designers on the international scene, winning them numerous awards and accolades along the way. Today, Michael and Anna are carrying on the business. Here we speak to Anna about what qualities you need to possess to be a successful type designer.
