Billiard was born from the numerous sketches Andre Toet did for the
design of a postage stamp series in 2011. It's a capital monospaced and
'fun' alphabet, based on the classic billiard play with two white and one
red ball. Actually snooker and pool were derived from this rather old
sport! In Europe it used to be a sport played by elderly people, practised
in traditional bars, including the smell of beer and the at that time
prevalent smell of cigarets and cigars. These days billiard, snooker and
pool are quite popular once again with young people. Hopefully our new
font will get the same attention the 'old sport' deserves and who knows it
might even be used in a sportive way. ArtDirection/Concept: André Toet - Executive Design: Jasper Nijssen Read Less
