What Is eliashanzer.com?

Updated

eliashanzer.com is the online portfolio of Elias Hanzer, a typeface designer, and of the studio hanli. It presents typeface design work and related projects rather than selling products or publishing articles. The site is useful if you want to see what Hanzer has designed, identify a typeface by name, or find a professional contact.

What the site covers

The homepage is a compact index of the designer's output and affiliations. It lists:

  • Typefaces and type projects — including HAL Typefaces, Phase, and ABC Arizona.
  • Studios and collaborators — hanli (the studio) and Dinamo Typefaces, a type foundry associated with the Arizona release.
  • A specimen publication — The Arizona Type Specimen Edition, a printed or designed specimen for the Arizona typeface.
  • A separate typeface label — EH Normal.
  • Contact and social links — Instagram, email, and a privacy policy.

What kind of site it is

The page reads as a portfolio or index, not a storefront or blog. There are no visible pricing signals, cart, or checkout links, and no article or news section. So you should not expect to buy licences or read editorial content directly here. For purchasing or licensing a typeface, the relevant foundry or typeface label is the place to look — for example, Dinamo Typefaces in the case of ABC Arizona.

How to use it

  • To identify a typeface: scan the listed names (HAL Typefaces, Phase, ABC Arizona, EH Normal) and match them against the design you are trying to name.
  • To see the designer's range: use the list as a map of projects, then follow the named studios and labels for fuller specimens and technical details.
  • To get in touch: the email and Instagram links are the direct routes; the privacy policy indicates the site collects some visitor data.

If your goal is licensing, pricing, or technical font specifications, treat this site as a starting point and continue to the foundry or label pages it references.
