Underware’s work is among the most popular of independent type foundries — happy-go-lucky, high-quality, text-friendly typefaces for both display use and comprehensive typesetting. Underware’s typefaces stand out thanks to unique aesthetics and a considered collective presence. Underware is a refreshing and intelligent team who, while taking what they do seriously, manage to not take themselves too seriously. Founded in 1999 by Akiem Helmling, Bas Jacobs, and Sami Kortemäki, Underware is based in Den Haag, Amsterdam and Helsinki.
