DETI Keynote—Dave Crossland: “The Use of Variable Fonts in Google's Branding Typography”

Dave Crossland is the current Lead Program Manager at Google Fonts. He earned a BA in graphic and interaction design from Ravensbourne University, London, and an MA in Type Design from the University of Reading, where he created the Cantarell typeface family as his graduation thesis project—a contemporary humanist sans serif developed for on-screen reading; in particular, reading web pages on cheap Android devices.

The second Design Educator Typography Intensive (DETI), a global virtual learning environment, was presented by Hoffmitz Milken Center for Typography (HMCT) on January 22–23, 2021. With a focus on Branding & Typography, the two-day intensive provided educators, designers, and students access to some of the most talented typography instructors currently teaching, who generously shared their expertise during the four webinar sessions.
