Fred Smeijers (Eindhoven, 1961) is a Dutch graphic, type designer and writer. He studied at the ArtEZ Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in Arnhem in the early 1980s.

Work

After his graduation, Smeijers worked for Océ – a Dutch manufacturer of printing and copying hardware. Between 1986 and 1990, he worked at the Océ's industrial design department as a typographic advisor, designing typefaces for early laser printers. In the mid-1980s Smeijers started to develop an interest in the early 16th century technique of punchcutting. The insights he acquired from these experiments influence the way he designs typefaces. This became first apparent in his typeface FF Quadraat, a classic book typeface with interesting and innovative details. Other Smeijers' retail typefaces are FF Quadraat Sans, FF Quadraar Display, FF Quadraat Headliner, and FF Quadraat Mono (FontFont); Renard (The Enschedé Font Foundry), Nobel (co-designed with Andrea Fuchs, Dutch Type Library); Arnhem, Arnhem Display, Arnhem Fine, Fresco, Fresco Sans, Fresco Informal, Custodia, Sansa, Monitor, Ludwig, Puncho, Bery, Bery Roman, and Bery Tuscan (OurType); Haultin, Lyonnaise, Gantoise,[1] Sloan, Lambrusco. Smeijers has also designed custom typefaces and iconic logos for Philips, Canon-Europe, TomTom, Samsung, Porsche, among others. Public architectural lettering projects include the IJsei terminal[2] in Amsterdam (designed with Erik Vos, Het lab) for Benthem Crouwel Architects and city of Amsterdam.

Smeijers is a research fellow at Plantin Moretus Museum in Antwerp, Professor of Type Design at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst, Leipzig and at the Royal Academy of Arts, The Hague.

In 2000 Smeijers received the prestigious Gerrit Noordzij Prize, awarded by The Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague to honor innovations in type design and outstanding contribution to type education.[3] In 2016, Smeijers received the Typography Award from the Society of Typographic Aficionados (SOTA).[4]

Smeijers was formerly a founding partner of OurType,[5] with entrepreneur Rudy Geeraerts and typographer Corina Cotorobai,[6] stepping down as the foundry's artistic director in 2017.

Smeijers is the author of Counterpunch and Type Now, Hyphen Press, London.
