Timeline

1954

Lida Lopes Cardozo Kindersley (born 1954), also known as Lida Lopes Cardozo and Lida Cardozo Kindersley, is a letter-cutter, typeface designer, author and publisher and runs the Cardozo Kindersley Workshop in Cambridge.

She is considered the foremost letter-cutter currently working in the United Kingdom and is "dedicated to the increase of good lettering in the world".

Her work in slate, stone and other media includes carved memorials, plaques, inscriptions and sundials which can be seen at many public locations in the United Kingdom and beyond.

Her works include the ledger stone for the grave of William Blake at Bunhill Fields.

With her first husband David Kindersley she also designed the main gates for the British Library.

Lida Lopes Cardozo was born in 1954 in Leiden in The Netherlands.

1976

She graduated from the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague, in 1976 where she studied lettering with typographer and designer Gerrit Noordzij.

It was in his classes that she realised that she wanted to create letters and work in carving stone.

In 1976 she met British stone-carver and type designer David Kindersley at a conference about type design, and soon afterwards relocated to the UK to become his apprentice at his workshop in Cambridge.

1977

The Cardozo Kindersley Workshop in Cambridge was established by Lida and David Kindersley and since 1977 has occupied its current location in a converted Victorian school.

Lida trains apprentices in lettercutting by hand, each usually staying at the workshop for three years.

Lida and David co-authored a number of publications on the art of lettering, their workshop, and the importance of apprenticeship.

Lida has continued to write on these and other subjects and also publishes works through the Cardozo Kindersley imprint.

1980

Lida and David collaborated on many creative works including the British Library gates, a 1980 memorial stone to Richard III at Leicester Cathedral and Stations of the Cross for the London Oratory School and in establishing the Cardozo Kindersley Workshop in Cambridge.

In her subsequent career Lida has created works across the UK and beyond as public and private commissions with a particular focus on gravestones and memorials.

Many of her works can be seen in Cambridge and Cambridge University, including a memorial for Stephen Hawking at Gonville and Caius College.

1986

Lida Lopes Cardozo married David Kindersley in 1986 and they had three sons together.

Two of their sons have joined her in working in the workshop.

Her second husband Graham Beck now runs the workshop with her, along with her Daughter-in-Law Roxanne Kindersley and her youngest son Vincent Kindersley.

1995

This association developed into a close creative partnership which lasted until David's death in 1995.

2005

In 2005 Lida and her childhood friend Els Bottema started to arrange a line of shells on the beach at Shingle Street in Suffolk.

They began the line as a way of coping with their shared experience of cancer treatment and have returned regularly to maintain and add to the line since then.

2015

In 2015 she was awarded an MBE for services to lettercutting.

Lida has cut a number of sundials on public buildings including Selwyn College and Pembroke College, Cambridge.

In her work on sundials Lida has collaborated with Dr Frank King, Chairman of the British Sundial Society and Keeper of the Clock at Cambridge University, realising more than 20 of his sundial designs.

As well as hand-cut letterforms, Lida has designed several digital typefaces including 'Emilida', commissioned by music company EMI and 'Pulle' which is based on letterforms Lida has been cutting for over 20 years and offers a very large range of letter heights rather than variations in weight.

'Pulle' was first used in public on a glass panel in the newly reopened Cambridge Central Library and also in Lida's design for the new entrance to Wesley House, Cambridge.
