About the family


I really like the Japanese language, as it has words that describe a whole world of meaning. Like Shoganai. It literally means: ‘It cannot be helped’. That’s life, get used to it. Shoganai sums up a lot of the Japanese culture and way of thinking: if things cannot be helped, then accept it and move on. Shoganai is a set of Brush fonts: a thinner, script font and a heavy display font. Use if for book covers, product packaging and more. If you can’t use it, then, well, Shoganai.

About Hanoded

Hanoded is run by Dutchman David Kerkhoff. His fonts are a mishmash of styles, as he just creates whatever pops into his head. You will find a lot of brush fonts in his collection, as his favourite tools are brushes and Chinese ink, with cartoon style fonts and script fonts complementing his repertoire. Aside from making fonts, David occasionally guides tours in far-flung places, renovates his '30's house and tries reasoning with his wife and (teenage) kids. Not an easy task!
