VA: Jonathan Barnbrook

Jonathan Barnbrook is an british graphic designer and typographer who was born in Luton in 1966. He describes his work as an inner anger that is in response to all the unfairness in the world. Some of his earliest work was an album cover for David Bowie's 2002 album Heathem. Barnbrook started doing typefaces when attending college, and felt like he couldn't represent something through a typeface unless he had created it. Barnbrook is also one of the most famous British designers in Japan, contributing some corporate identity's for Roppongi Hills and the Mori Arts Center.
