For Ian, it all started in Grade 4. ”I remember being bored and my mind wandered until it was struck by an idea. I decided to sharpen my pencil as much as I could and then attempted to duplicate, size-as, the 16 point century type that was on the page before me.” IB TYPE is a passion project.The Premium foundry page can be viewed Here.
