Process Type Foundry is a Minneapolis-based independent type foundry founded in 2002 by Eric Olson (later joined by Nicole Dotin). The studio specializes in both retail and custom font design, producing renowned typefaces like Klavika (along with Condensed and Display variants), Seravek, Colfax, Capucine, Stratum, Locator, Maple, Kettler, Recipient, Sculpin, and Recent Grotesk, among others. These typefaces have seen widespread adoption across branding, corporate identities, magazines, broadcast graphics, exhibitions, and websites internationally. The foundry has also partnered with platforms like Typekit (now Adobe Fonts) since 2010, making families like Bryant, Klavika, Locator, and Seravek available as web fonts. What sets Process Type Foundry apart is its balance of rigorous design and versatility—creating fonts that are simultaneously functional, contemporary, and artistically expressive, under the leadership of Olson (with Dotin)—with each design rooted firmly in both form and utility.
