House Industries is a Yorklyn, Delaware (USA)-based independent typography and creative firm that markets consumer products, original fonts, custom lettering and illustration worldwide. After a modest beginning in 1993, House Industries has nurtured a reputation for dependability, integrity, stubbornness and overpackaging which has led them to the forefront of the display typography trade.

Originally founded in 1993 by principals Andy Cruz and Rich Roat, House Industries has grown into a studio which sells unique display typography which is constantly on the edge, illustration and design services, and, most recently, clothing and accessories (such as a very groovy collection of cushions). Many of the faces are grungy or special effect fonts, and most of their font names have the word 'house' in them, as in the graffiti font Phathouse.

House Industries' graphic style is derived almost entirely from the "modern" graphic styles of America in the late 1950s and early '60s: sleek, streamlined, forward-looking. They also have fun with other retro '60s styles, in type families like the Las Vegas Font Collection, the Rat Fink Fonts, the Tiki Type Collection, and Typography of Coop. Their love affair with the early '60s reached its apotheosis in the Chalet Font Family, ostensibly based on the designs of the mythical clothing designer RenÈ Albert Chalet.

Other exclusive House Industries fonts include: Crackhouse, Funhouse, Beachouse, Funkhouse, Firehouse and Stunthouse. Also released in 2001: the Simian font collection (OrangUtan, Chimpanzee, Gorilla and Sacred Scroll).
