Interview with the Designer Alexander Wise

Your name / Company name
Alexander Wise / ActiveBuro

Can you give us a brief description about you and the company you work for?
We do design and branding for music and action-sports.
Our clients include Capitol, Etnies, StreetMachine, Sony Music, Espionnage, Trace, etc.

What is your direction in graphic design? How would you characterize your style?
"Simplicity and efficiency".
I try to imagine the best possible solution for the client's needs within those parameters. Graphic design in not about doing just what you want. If that's the case, do fine art!

Place of work
Paris, France.

Can you give us a short description about your font?
Winter is a display font based on work I did for French director Seb Janiak. We put together the packaging for a DVD of go-go girls he shot. The inspiration comes from neon signage in the red-light district.

What is the ideal usage of your font?
I would love to see the font used for X-rated material...

Where does the name come from?
I don't really remember about the naming, it doesn't seem very logical though...

Do you think that too many fonts exist?
No.
