The GOODList, Curator Series #5 ft. Harry Butt

The GOODList is a community of creative freelancers committed to helping clients in finding the right talent for the project at hand. With its more collaborative model and a focus on diversity, it aims to provide an alternative to traditional recruitment platforms and representation agencies.

Each month, the team of The GOODList asks a curator to select three creatives from their network that they believe are pushing the boundaries in their field. The emerging talents are spotlighted in a series of video clips titled Curator Series. For the fifth edition in August 2023, The GOODList invited Harry Butt. Earlier this year, the acclaimed motion designer and founder of Butt Studio joined the newly launched Nexus Design Studio in the role of Creative Director.

Butt used this platform to highlight the works of three artists: Maïté Marque, an illustrator based in Paris; Juna Horstmans, a visual artist from Australia who currently lives in the Netherlands; and Bettina Comte, an interactive designer from Paris.

The typeface selected for the titles and the names of the featured women is Tempel Softland. Designed by Reymund Schröder as a variation of his Tempel Grotesk, it was released with Production Type earlier this year. The GOODList used Tempel Softland in the widest of its three styles, the Condensed, and mostly in tightly spaced capitals. Softland is supported by The GoodSans, a custom typeface designed in 2022 by Briton Smith at Family Type.
