The Northern Block foundry was begun by Jonathan Hill in 2006. Situated in picturesque Newcastle upon Tyne, The Northern Block incorporates high functionality and clean, contemporary aesthetics into their type designs. Well known for their anti-establishment inclinations, this foundry has certainly left its mark upon the design world, winning international awards and seeing their work used by video game designers, electronics manufacturers, and mobile app developers.
Their latest addition to YouWorkForThem is Boita, an inviting serif type design that’s sophisticated and self-assured.
