With a keen eye for typography, Julius Hui worked a number of years on advising type foundries and brands with Chinese typeface design—notable partnerships include HP and Intel—before becoming senior type and graphic designer at Monotype Hong Kong, a Hong Kong-based company specialising in Chinese character typography. With the increasing rise of China-based technology and a greater need for Chinese-text typefaces, Julius took Monotype up to a global level by garnering an exclusive contract for Tencent’s Chinese characters. His work at Monotype gained Hui his place on the 2017 Gen.T list for Hong Kong.

After leaving Monotype in 2019, Hui worked in various design roles until 2021 when he founded his own font design company, Kowloon Type.
