Hello my name is Roland Hüse, I am a freelance type designer and letterer from Hungary.
I am all about typography and letterforms since childhood, I remember my favorite hobby was drawing logos from soda cans and candy bars. Later on when I started working regular day jobs, my adventures begun in the Netherlands while packaging fruits and veggies at the assembly line I was dreaming of making a living from my hobby and traveling around.
Fast forward about a decade, I am doing exactly that. I became more and more attracted to the Asian part of the world, and some of their writing systems. Through my growing interests in non latin alphabets, I found out about my own country’s typographic heritage which is called (“Old Hungarian”) Rovas.
Calligraphy is not just a hobby but an adventurous lifestyle to me. I strive to create and develop a unique style that goes well together across multi script environment, focusing on differences and similarities of the techniques and shapes to showcase the beauty of each letter and its aesthetic through design and typography. I am actively seeking cross-cultural collaborations with artists, typography publishers, and cultural arts institutions.
