Victor Moscoso
The Victor Moscoso font is based on the 1960s psychedelic poster lettering of the artist Victor Moscoso. The letterforms are derived from some of his most celebrated Neon Rose posters of the late sixties, in particular the archetypical Moby Grape ‘Neptune’s Notion’ of 1967.
Mandatory
Mandatory is a full small caps font developed from the typeface used for UK vehicle registration plates. There is improved stroke separation on the M and W which are pointed at the centre, and the tail of the Q is thinner and clearer.
Subway Ticker
Subway Ticker is based on a 5×7 grid, electronic display observed on a New York subway train in February 2005 en route to Coney Island.
Roadway
Roadway is based on U.S. highway lettering observed on New York street signs. Two weights of highway lettering would often be used on the same sign, condensed for the main name (Roadway uppercase) and a half-size regular superscript (Roadway lowercase) for ‘road’ or ’street’.
Mailart Rubberstamp
The Mailart Rubberstamp font was inspired by rubberstamped envelopes and artworks by Mailartists Jonathan Stangroom, H. R. Fricker and Flea Art, and the typeface Clarendon Condensed.
Lexia Readable
Lexia Readable was designed for maximum legibility, an attempt to capture the strength and clarity of Comic Sans without the comic book associations. Features like the non-symmetrical b and d, and the handwritten forms of a and g may help dyslexic readers.
