We design words. Not just how they look, but what they become when they find the right voice.
Every typeface starts with a story. A place. An era. The hands that shaped letters before the ubiquity of desktop publishing. Hand-painted signs from the 1960s. Early European grotesques from dusty foundry specimens. Calligraphic masters whose work still makes us stop and stare.
Letters carry history, personality, soul — whether they show it or not. Multitudes makes the kind that do. Whether retail or bespoke, we make fonts that feel like they've lived a life before they land on your screen.
We give a damn about the craft. Extensive character sets. Language support we're continually expanding. Every glyph, every alternate, every diacritic — all of it matters.
Multitudes is a studio obsessed with typography and storytelling. We bridge the past and future to create soul and sophistication for today.
Mark De Winne
(*1984) began his career in graphic design before typography drew him deeper into its craft, leading him from Singapore to The Hague’s Type & Media program, where he became the first Singaporean graduate. His practice now moves between brand identity, type design, teaching, and documenting Singapore’s typographic vernacular. Previously, his work was released by Typofonderie and Darden Studio, and in 2018 he was named a TDC Ascender. After founding Type Design Asia in 2024, he now leads Multitudes—a foundry shaped by his belief that letters can carry culture, story, and place.
