The identity design for this year’s Typographics festival uses a variety of fonts from multiple designers that weren’t intended to be used together, but their squarish proportions allow for fun mix-and-match effects.

Thanks to @boogypaper@typo.social & Bureau Brut, @daytonamess@typo.social, Céline Hurka, and @marksimonson@typo.social & @thetypefounders@typo.social for allowing us to tweak their fonts for easy overlapping at the same font size.

Also thanks to @btuttle@typo.social & @otf@typo.social and @boogypaper@typo.social & Bureau Brut for additional accompanying fonts.

For the design of this year’s Typographics festival, we’re using several complementary typefaces:

➽ Mayonnaise from Spaghetype for decorative settings, overlaid with its Shadow and Shine layers

➽ Anchor from Process Type for most other headings

➽ Cupidus & Cupidus Text from @jaf@typo.social for subheadings, deks, body text, captions, etc.

➽ Crackly from Emigre for various ornamental background patterns
