About Bowlby One Fonts
Bowlby One has been designed for use as a utilitarian, all caps display font. A version with lowercase characters is also available. Its forms are a fusion of a handfull of designs scanned from old, early Twentieth Century type specimens. Bowlby One is perfect for big bold headlines and display uses that need a slightly roughened look. Bowlby is a web font, designed to be used freely across the internet by web browsers on desktop computers, laptops, cloud systems and mobile devices.
Who Designed Bowlby One?
Vernon Adams
Vernon practiced typeface design professionally from 2007 to 2014. A lifelong artist, during this period he eagerly explored designing type for the mobile/cloud era of computing. His work spans all genres, from lively script faces to workhorse text families and operating system UI. Vernon graduated with an MA in Typeface Design from the University of Reading (UK) in 2006, and passed away in California in 2014. Almost all his typefaces live on as open source Google Fonts, and his favorite projects were Oxygen Mono, Monda, and Bowlby One. Follow his story at sansoxygen.com
