Matt Griffin
Bearded, Wood Type Revivalist
Matt Griffin is a designer and founder of design and development agency Bearded. He has a great love for letterpress printing, which he acquired while attending Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, where he received a BFA in Graphic Design. He is one of the creators of Wood Type Revival, a successfully Kickstarter-funded project which seeks out lost historic wood type and converts it into digital fonts for modern designers. Matt is an avid advocate for collaboration in design, and has been published in A List Apart and .net magazine.
Matt lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with his wife Elizabeth and his son Argus. Previous to entering the world of design, Matt was an active musician (drums, mostly) in Bloomington, Indiana and Chicago, Illinois. He made a handful of records and did some touring. Somehow he got sort of famous in Japan, which is a long story.
