Hibernia Type is run by Christopher Burke (b. 1967), the British designer of the text face Celeste (FontFont, 1999-2000) and Celeste Sans (2004). His balanced sans serif text face Pragma ND (1995) is available from Neufville. Chris got a Ph from, and later taught typography at the University of Reading from 1996-2001. He was instrumental in setting up the MA program in type design at Reading. In 2002, he finished Parable, which was published at FontFont as FF Parable.

His book, Paul Renner: the art of typography, was published in 1998 by Hyphen Press (London), and simultaneously by Princeton Architectural Press (New York). It has also been translated into Spanish and published by Campgràfic (Valencia).

Chris lived (still lives?) in Barcelona.
