When a brand needs to stand apart, a custom typeface can do what off-the-shelf fonts can’t. It creates consistency, adds distinction, and becomes a core part of how a brand looks, feels, and communicates.

At S6 Foundry, we work with design teams, agencies, and brand owners to create custom type built around specific goals—whether it’s a logo wordmark, a display headline style, or a full family built for broad application across platforms.

We focus on clarity, utility, and identity. Our process starts with a clear scope—usage, timeline, licensing, and language support—and moves into close collaboration. We dig into your brand’s context, tone, and audience to shape a type system that feels intentional and reads effortlessly.

We’ll guide you through concept development, from test word sketches to final production fonts. Every stage is handled with care: open communication, thoughtful critique, and a focus on making something that works, not just something that looks interesting in a presentation deck.

Our fonts are engineered for performance across media and tested thoroughly before delivery. Whether you’re building from the ground up or fine-tuning an existing typeface to better fit your brand, we’re here to help you create a typographic voice that’s as strong as the message it carries.

Logo Development

Logos and brandmarks rely on the same principles that guide strong type: clarity, balance, and optical precision. At S6 Foundry, we apply our typographic experience directly to logo design—ensuring forms are not only distinctive, but also well-crafted and functional at every size.

Whether we’re drawing a wordmark, refining an icon, or developing a symbol from scratch, we focus on details that influence perception—rhythm, proportion, curve quality, and spatial relationships. We apply the same typographic corrections that bring legibility and polish to type, so your logo holds up across applications—from large-scale signage to small-screen use.

We also work with existing marks, improving structure, tightening execution, and ensuring consistency across formats. Many of our projects involve collaborating with creative teams who already have a concept and need it taken to a higher level of finish.

As type designers, we’re trained to see how forms interact and how to tune them for maximum effect. That same skillset applies to logo systems, icons, and brandmarks—especially in digital environments where precision matters most.

If you need a logo that’s clear, confident, and built to last, we can help—from clean refinements to full original marks.
