– – – Hanoded Fonts

Bikepacker

Back in the day, when the expression ‘bike packing’ did not yet exist, I rode my bike to Denmark from home in The Netherlands. A few years after, my wife (then girlfriend) and I took the ferry over to the UK and cycled from Hull, across the North York Mores NP to Yorkshire Dales NP, then on to the Lake District, across…

You And AI

Brush, Display, Grunge

We’re now officially living in the AI-era. AI is everywhere and it worries me a bit, as AI is far from perfect. The internet is full of (sometimes hilarious) mistakes, some of which you will find on the posters I created for this font. You And AI is a font I made the good, old fashioned way: by hand. No AI needed…

Fiets

Brush, Experimental, Tall & Thin

Fiets is Dutch for bicycle. The origin of this word is unknown, but it has been part of the Dutch language since 1870. The Dutch love their bicycles and we ride them just about anywhere! My family and I are going on a bike-trip in the UK this summer, so I just had to name this font Fiets! Fiets is a handmade…

Spoiled Rotten

Brush, Display, Fat

The other day I was thinking about people who are spoiled rotten. It happened right after two prominent figures had a public fall out and behaved like spoiled brats. It was loud, ugly and kind of embarrassing, so I decided to name this loud, possibly ugly, but not quite embarrassing font after it! Spoiled Rotten was made with ink and a brush…

Spoiler Alert

Comic, Display

Spoiler Alert: this text will tell you all about my new font! 😉 I don’t have a TV in my house (nor will I ever). Not because I am religious (I am not), nor because I am against TV (I am not). It’s just that I don’t care for what’s on the TV. It’s talkshows, games, quizzes and bad news, so I…

Brush Aside

Brush, Display, Grunge

I make quite a variety of fonts, but brush fonts are my absolute favourite. When I dip my brushes in that ink, I feel like I am really creating something special! Brush Aside is such a brush font. Let’s say I was aiming for a different look, but this is what I put on paper at the end of the day. Brush…

Thunfisch

Brush, Display, Fat

Thunfisch, in German, means Tuna. At home, we don’t eat too much tuna, but I like serving a tuna & pasta salad. In Japan, where I often find myself, tuna is a staple protein source. It is so popular in Japan that species like the Pacific Bluefin tuna, of which 80% its consumed in Japan, are on the brink of extinction. So,…

Chippie

Display, Unique

Chippie is British vernacular for Fish & Chips Shop. There are about 11.000 of them scattered all over the UK and Ireland, so there’s no need to starve to death… 😉 My family and I will go on a cycling holiday in England this summer, so I booked a ferry to Harwich from Hook of Holland. Since we’ll be arriving in the…

Absolutely Lovely

Comic, Display, Tall & Thin

With so much bad news going on in the world today, I thought a lovely font with an absolutely lovely name was what the masses needed. Besides that, a friend told me that Mercury Retrograde starts on Saturday, March 15th, so you can use this font when everything in your life descends into chaos! 😉 Absolutely Lovely is a handmade font. It…

Spanish Plonk

Display, Tall & Thin, Unique

‘Plonk’ in British, New Zealand and Australian vernacular means ‘cheap wine’. It is also called ‘Cardboardeaux’, or (in my country) ‘Château Migraine”. Plonk is often bought in 5 liter boxes or even plastic bottles. It doesn’t really taste that great, but it gets the job done – especially when you’ve already had a few. Apparently it will not be that cheap for…
