About

HISTORY
Starting with graphic design in the early 90s, Thomas Schostok works at the intersection of fine art and graphic design, focusing on web and print design. His love for typography can always be admired in his art and design work. For his project entitled 'BEAST Magazine – The Bible of Inspiration', 2001, Thomas Schostok invited artists and designers to participate, providing a perfect example of how technology can provide alternative means of publication. In 2002, {ths} co-founded The Cape Arcona Type Foundry, a type foundry that produces and digitizes typefaces and creates custom and corporate typefaces.

In 2002, {ths} co-founded The Cape Arcona Type Foundry, a type foundry that produces and digitizes typefaces and creates custom and corporate typefaces. This work has cultivated an exceptional eye for typographic details – a skill that major clients consistently seek when commissioning custom corporate typefaces that must be both distinctive and flawlessly executed. This deep typographic expertise informs and elevates the broader design work, bringing a level of precision and craftsmanship that few designers can match.
