Alive Fonts

Alive Fonts specializes in handcrafted typography. Allen Mercer is chief operator, design technician and janitor of our facility located in northeastern Hungary. As a previous partner at House Industries, he created fonts such as Funhouse, the Street Van collection and the infamous House Gothic. In 1998 Allen gave up his partnership with House Industries to become a full-time Christian missionary with his wife Sharon in Hungary. Allen has been handcrafting fonts for over 20 years and hopes to make some extra dough to provide for his family of four and his missionary work among Hungarians.
