Über die Familie


Langston is an original design by Alex Kaczun. It’s part of a series of lettering experiments, manipulating body proportions, characteristic elements and spacing to achieve some dramatic visual effects. It is hard to characterize if Langston is an outline or inline font. The outline has the same thickness and proportions as the stems. And the inter-letter spacing is also visually similar. This creates a dynamic and interesting visual harmony throughout. Furthermore, certain design elements like the accents and punctuation symbols, break with the outline treatment, and morph into an interesting play between inline and outline. The overall effect is stunning and mesmerizing. Langston is a display font not intended for text use. It was designed specifically for display headlines, logotype, branding and similar applications.This attractive display comes in roman with lower case and lining figures.The font is also available with true small capitals and old style figures. A special version was created with decorative initial capitals to further enhance the possibilities. The large Pro font character set supports most Central European and many Eastern European languages.

Über Type Innovations

Alex Kaczun is an accomplished type designer and the founder of Type Innovations, specializing in the creation of high-quality typefaces and custom font solutions. With more than four decades of experience in typography, he has built a distinguished career focused on innovative type design, technical excellence, and the development of professional-grade fonts. Much of his career was spent at the premier type foundry Linotype-Hell, where he served as principal type designer. In this role, he contributed to major projects modernizing the Linotype Library, managed the development of The Adobe Font Library, and created Multiple Master fonts for Apple Computer’s QuickDraw technology—work that helped shape the early standards of digital typography. In 1980, Alex joined a pioneering group of entrepreneurs at Bitstream in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he played a key role in developing the world’s first digital font library. This foundational experience deepened his expertise in both the artistic and technical aspects of typeface design. He later brought his specialized knowledge to Bozell Worldwide, the international advertising agency behind the iconic “Got Milk?” campaign, serving as type director. There he further refined his skills at the intersection of typography, graphic design, and production. In early 2003, Alex joined Bertelsmann’s Bookspan division (formerly Doubleday Books), where he applied his design expertise to create hundreds of book jacket designs and layouts for nearly 20 different book clubs. Most recently, Alex completed a two-year project designing a new family of online fonts for the rebranding of RBC—Royal Bank of Canada. Today, through Type Innovations, Alex continues to design original typefaces and offer professional font customization services. The foundry is dedicated to delivering the highest-quality type products, combining meticulous craftsmanship with technical precision to meet the needs of designers, brands, and creative professionals.
