Summary
Max Esnée is a Lyon-based co-founder, independent type designer and art director with 11 years blending typography, branding and web development. He builds custom typefaces and visual identities while shipping polished web experiences, drawing on a post-diplôme in Typographie & Language and fine-arts grounding from École du Louvre and EPSAA. Since 2013 he has combined freelance design and front-end development work with art direction, and in 2025 launched Plomb Type to focus on type-driven projects. Comfortable moving between pixel-perfect UI implementation and the craft of glyph design, he brings both maker-level attention to detail and strategic branding sense to client work. An unexpected strength is his cross-disciplinary fluency—historical art knowledge informs contemporary type choices, yielding distinctive, research-backed visual systems.
