SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Feb. 26, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Today marks the birth of a brand, equally devoted to both design and substance, which introduces you to some of our favorite design creators and mavericks.
The first-of-its-kind design community platform will kick off featuring design giants like ICON 4X4, Modernica and Moore and Giles where the brand shares their story and explore their process.
Autotype offers a divergent course for the design community, one that promotes collaboration and collective opportunity for success, with little compromise. The site will provide a unique platform for designers to not only share their work but to also use the site as a revenue stream, with 10% of sales feeding into the Autotype Scholarship Fund, offering scholarships for promising future designers.
"We search high and low to identify true designers who are pushing boundaries in our field and pursuing new frontiers for design to flourish; we tell their stories, explore their processes and offer their products online." —Derek Galkin, co-founder
"Beyond feeling and doing good, giving back to the future of design helps us open doors, connect, and build a better design community.—Tu Pham, co-founder
About Autotype
Imagination propels the brand forward. It envisions profound futures. It captivates, compels, and at times, it even terrifies. This is the playground of artists, innovators, and creatives. Designers bring this imagination to life: they relentlessly provoke, plan, and perfect in order to craft something functional and timeless. Designers influence what consumers wear, what they drive, and how they live, font by font, product by product, and detail by painstaking detail.
At Autotype, the brand and its founders share in this pursuit. The aim is to create an inclusive space for designers to entertain the impossible, with support from a community of advocates who value great design.
Autotype launches in February 2019, with its debut Autotype Design Club inductee Jonathan Ward, founder and chief designer of Icon.
