Barry Deck"After graduation from Northern Illinois University in 1986, he was recruited as a junior designer for Lipmon & Simmons in Chicago, and then as a graphic designer for Kim Abrams Design. He returned to academia in 1987, enrolling on a Masters of Fine Arts programme at the California Institute of Arts where he studied an experimental approach with Ed Fella and Lorraine Wild. He moved to New York in 1992, and was seen as quite a radical for the somewhat conservative typeface community.Deck has become associated with distorted typefaces, which began to appear in publications such as Ray Gun, Emigré, Wired Eye, and I.D. in the early 1990s. His typefaces came to typify the 'new wave' of the early 1990s and Emigré proclaimed his font Template Gothic as "the typeface of the decade".In 1995 he set up his own company, Dysmedia, and has worked with Pepsi, Reebok, Nickelodeon, and VH1.In Deck's own words: '…he continues his effort to help fill the world with interesting, intelligent, idiosyncratic, ironic, beautiful and amusing stuff. And he has no lawn.'"http://www.identifont.com/show?1HV

Rick Vermeulen"Rick Vermeulen was born in Schiedam, the Netherlands in 1950. He studied graphic design at the Rotterdam Academy, graduating in 1972. From 1975, he worked regularly for the publisher Bert Bakker and was a participant in Rotterdam’s Graphic Workshop, where designers and artists produced material for cultural organisations in the city and events such as the Rotterdam Film Festival. From 1978-82, Vermeulen was an editor of Hard Werken magazine, along with Willem Kars, Henk Elenga, Gerard Hadders and Tom van den Haspel. The cultural tabloid made a considerable national impact and the group became a design studio operating under the name Hard Werken, with each designer supervising his own projects. By the end of the 1980s, in a changing business and cultural climate, Hard Werken was in financial trouble. In 1994, the company moved from Rotterdam to the Amsterdam area and amalgamated with the packaging design company Ten Cate Bergmans, subsequently changing its name to Inizio. In 1993, Vermeulen, a regular visitor to the United States, with teaching experience at Cranbrook, CalArts and North Carolina State University, moved to Los Angeles, where he took over the position formerly occupied by Henk Elenga as Hard Werken LA Desk. After two years in the city he decided to return to the Netherlands. In 1995, the retrospective exhibition ‘From Hard Werken to Inizio’ was staged at the Karmeliterkloster, Frankfurt am Main and the Kunsthal, Rotterdam, marking the end of an era for Vermeulen and the original founders. In recent years, Vermeulen has designed two typefaces for Fuse. He collaborates with Inizio and works on freelance projects for publishing and other clients."http://www.eyemagazine.com/feature/article/reputations-rick-vermeulen

Cornel WindlinAfter graduating from college, Windlin "moved to London in 1988 to work for Neville Brody and later became art editor for THE FACE magazine. In 1993 he returned to his native Switzerland and started his own design practice in Zurich. Cornel Windlin’s design work quickly won critical acclaim and has since been exhibited in museums and published in design books and all leading design publications. He has lectured in the US, England, Germany, Austria, Israel and Switzerland. He currently works as a designer/art director in both Zurich and London for a number of clients in both cultural and commercial fields. Cornel Windlin started creating typefaces primarily for use in his own work while still at art school. Together with Stephan Müller, he formed the digital font foundry LINETO to distribute his fonts and those of an illustruous circle of friends. Lineto.com has evolved into a network of designers between Switzerland, New York, London, Tokyo, Stockholm, Vienna and Berlin, creating a platform for shared attitudes and common interests. Windlin has created corporate typefaces for clients as diverse as Mitsubishi cars or the Herzefeld Memorial Trust, or custom fonts for projects at Kunsthaus Zurich, Tate museums as well as various editorial projects."https://www.fontfont.com/designers/cornel-windlin
