Carrefour Origin

Pushing the design to the borders of legibility, Origin answers the problem of fitting information in extremely narrow spaces.
Origin is a reglementary typeface commissioned by the retail distribution group Carrefour. By law, it is compulsory in France to set groceries’ geographical origin in the same point size as the price. Origin adresses this need in allowing the “specials” to be still typeset in a “special” point size. Instead of using an artificially compressed typeface, Origin makes drawn shapes tighter than ever.
Henderson Serif & Sans
Henderson is an exclusive typeface with Sans and Serif versions, designed by Jean François Porchez for his client and The Creative Factory design agency.
I took part in extending some weights from base letterforms designed by Jean François Porchez. I also prepared some Multiple Master workflows and developped the kerning, programmed the OpenType features, hinted in TrueType part of the family. My collaboration ended before the project end.
L’Henderson est une famille de caractères exclusive en version avec et sans empattements créée par Jean François Porchez en 2006 pour le compte de son client et de l’agence The Creative Factory.
J’ai participé à l’extension de certaines graisses d’après les formes de bases créés par Jean François Porchez. J’ai également préparé certains flux de travail en Multiple Master, développé le kerning, programmé les fonctions OpenType, hinté en TrueType une partie de la famille. Ma collaboration s’est arrêtée avant la finalisation du projet.
