Über die Familie


Mandelia was created by Alex Kaczun, an American type designer, in 2010. The typeface was named in honor of Nelson Mandela, former president of South Africa, for his “shining example of the incredible strength of the human spirit to persevere in the face of adversity for the pursuit of freedom”. Mandelia is a strong, bold and wide-bodied serif typeface design, reminiscent of the great African landscape with its diverse animal life. It’s easy to see the influence of the 'Rhino' sharp serifs and ‘Elephant’ size stems and proportions. The font commands attention and respect. Great for headlines that pack a punch, logos, posters, and signage. And because it was well designed, it can even be used in body copy at various point sizes. Mandelia is available in Opentype format for both Mac and PC, and comes complete with true drawn small caps, old style figures and Unicode Latin 1252 and Central European 1250 character sets. It has everything you need to get the job done.

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.
