Having fun at classes: “José Nogué” Academic of Arts, and Cuchis.
Carlos Campos is a Graphic Designer and typography teacher at the “José Nogué” Academic of Arts and University of Jaén (Andalusia, Spain). Co-founder with Viky Rodríguez of the event Órbitas Jaén, that it celebrates in the same city, and also promoter of "Cuchis", that are casual events dedicated to promote the typography culture. For some years now, Carlos has been especially interested in popular lettering, and he carries out research and compilation projects with different scopes: “Rótulos Chuléricos de Jaén” (Jaén), “¡Ole, qué Tipos!” (Andalusia) and “TypoSpain” (Spain). Besides, Carlos is the official dog walker of his little cute dog Kora Ampersand ("ampersand" comes from her natural position when she falls asleep on his bed).
Órbitas Jaén is a very great event. Just take a look at the great stars of design that have accompanied us.
And, finally, in his free time, Carlos also designs and develops typefaces. You can see them in this section of the web, or animated in Vimeo. Anything you want to ask, this is me: [email protected]
