THE QUESTA PROJECT
The Questa Project is a collaborative
type design project
by Martin Majoor & Jos
Buivenga.
Martin Majoor (b. 1960) started his type design career in the mid-1980s. He designed several award-winning typeface, like Scala, Seria, and Nexus. Worldwide the Scala family is a bestseller and it has established a position as a ‘classic’ among digital typefaces. Besides working as type designer, Majoor has designed several books, from poetry to complex scientific books. Worldwide he gives type design workshops and lectures at Schools of Arts and at design conferences. He has written articles for magazines like Page, 2+3d, and Eye Magazine, and he has contributed to several books on typography, like The Eternal Letter and 365typo.
Jos Buivenga (b. 1965) can be
passionate about a lot of things. He loves to paint, listen to music,
brew an almost perfect espresso... but nothing challenges and rewards
him more than designing type. Buivenga is the founder of Exljbris,
the one-man Dutch font foundry through which he releases and offers
his typefaces. In 2008, while still working as an art director at an
advertising agency, he released his first commercial typeface Museo
while offering several weights free. That strategy paid off and Museo
became a huge bestseller. Partly thanks to that success he now calls
himself a full-time type designer.
