Font Soup


Font Soup’ is an independent type foundry set up by 23-year-old Phil Kiel, from Merseyside, who is a graduate in Graphic Arts from the Liverpool School of Art & Design.



Every two months, Phil releases a selection of briefs to give designers the opportunity to develop their type skills. After completing a brief, designers can submit their fonts to Font Soup, which are then made available online for either free download or a small fee.



The idea behind Font Soup came from seeing other online type foundries gaining a lot of popularity but not being too friendly about opening their doors to submissions, so I decided to do it myself.



Font Soup is dedicated to providing support and encouragement to design students and graduates throughout the UK, and is not for making a profit.
