Satya Rajpurohit is the Founder of Fontstore and the Co-Founder of Indian Type Foundry (ITF), which is a design and planning firm reclassifying typography in Indian dialects.

Hailing from Nagaur, his folks trusted he would turn into a doctor. After a couple of bombed endeavors at clearing the tests, he started applying to art universities and was at long last acknowledged at the esteemed National Institute of Design (NID). He currently works full-time at ITF making unique textual styles for a very long time.

Back in 2009, there was no sort of foundries that spent significant time in Indian text styles. In any case, ITF stumbled upon the opportunity of a lifetime in 2011 when Star Plus authorized one of their text styles. Presently his textual styles are being utilized by a portion of the world’s most notable brands including Apple, Google, Samsung, Amazon, Sony, Discovery, and 21st Century Fox to give some examples.

Before establishing ITF, Satya worked momentarily with Linotype in Germany, Dalton Maag in the UK, and L2M3 in Germany. Satya started working with typefaces in 2009 when he established the Indian Type Foundry. His plan was easy to make textual styles, ideally Indian ones. They have 130 retail textual styles, and about another 100 custom text styles. The retail textual styles are ready to move on the web and are open for anybody to buy. They create custom brands on unique solicitations by customers.

Last year was especially unique for Indian Type Foundry originator Satya as he dispatched Fontstore, which resembles a Netflix for textual styles in Latin and Indic dialects, based out of Singapore. Through this, he dispatched a membership administration for fashioners and organizations. One can pay the membership cost and appropriately utilize our textual styles in the library.

In 2010, he got the prestigious “SoTA Catalyst Award” introduced by the Society of Typographic Aficionados. In 2016 and 2017, he was recorded as one of Fortune India’s “40 under 40”. In 2017, he was additionally recorded among GQ India’s “50 Most Influential Young Indians” list.
