Kasper Pyndt Rasmussen works with type and graphic design. The starting points, and main engines, of his practice are ① type, ② language and the relationship between the two. Through this exchange he aims to develop straight-forward design solutions that emphasise conceptual sturdiness and contextual awareness. This results (mostly) in the production of typefaces, publications, websites, and visual identities. After a longer detour to KABK in The Hague, he finished his MA at The Royal Academy (Copenhagen) in 2016. He has been working independently since January 1st, 2018 and founded Approximate Type in 2021. He currently shares a studio with Hanna Bergman, Laura Silke, Mads Sandholm and Reidar Pritzel.
