Typodermic Fonts began in 2001 as a place for Raymond Larabie to explore typography without narrowing the work to one era or genre. The library ranges from sleek futuristic families to vintage-inspired designs, expressive display faces, and practical workhorses used in graphic design, advertising, websites, games, apps, packaging, and broadcast projects around the world.
Ray was an early participant in digital font distribution and in licensing fonts for websites and mobile applications. That practical, forward-looking approach continues today: distinctive type should be useful, licensing should be understandable, and designers should be able to find an option suited to the way they actually work.
Typodermic also maintains substantial free-desktop and public-domain collections. These releases make a broad range of typefaces available to students, independent designers, preservationists, and experienced professionals alike.
The foundry’s Canadian roots and Japanese home give the catalog a perspective that is both personal and international. Typodermic continues to update older families, expand language coverage, and create typefaces with unmistakable character.
