If you love typefaces that start with documented historical references and are reshaped for today’s world, meet Typetanic Fonts. Each font is deliberately adapted by type designer Greg Shutters for contemporary use, so they work beautifully across branding, digital, and editorial contexts. And they can read as either historical or contemporary depending on how they’re used…by design.

NEW!
Cisne 🦢 is a display serif built on a tension: tightly packed vertical strokes set against large, open, near-perfect circular forms. It began as an ode to Stunt Roman, an Art Deco alphabet first appearing in the Speedball Lettering Manual of 1929. Designed by Ross F. George and known for its expressive swashes and refined curves — an alphabet made, in George’s own words: to show off.
Sproviero pushes that logic into new territory: swashes explored more deeply, serifs more pronounced, subtle ligatures appearing naturally without breaking the flow. Like a swan, it moves smoothly on the surface while holding a more complex structure underneath. As a variable font with weight and x-height axes — and a range of alternates — it offers that same depth at every size and weight. Suited to editorial and branding work that demands both presence and refinement.
Thanks, as always, to @thetypefounders for their help and advice on this project.

IvyMazarin is Jan Maack’s revival of Robert Girard’s 1921 Astrée — later issued as Mazarin by Stephenson Blake in 1926 — and a French 1920s interpretation of Garamond. To do it justice, Jan purchased a rare 1926 Stephenson Blake specimen book and spent time sorting through variants, deciding which quirks to keep and which to change. The result preserves the original’s cool crispness, especially in the Italics, with raised x-height, moderated ascenders, and a confident 12° slant.
A typeface for branding, editorial design, or book typography that rewards a closer look with its refined character and precise, incisive edge.
IvyMazarin is available now through @ivyfoundry ’s link in bio.

Since 2002, Eric Olson and Nicole Dotin of Process Type Foundry have been crafting a catalog that is quietly distinctive, technically sound, and filled with detail. We couldn’t be more excited to join forces with them, helping to manage their library and licensing, so they have more time to do what they do best—create unforgettable typefaces designers can’t wait to work with.
A message from Nicole Dotin & Eric Olson:
“Today we’re honored to announce the Process Type Foundry library has joined forces with The Type Founders. Over the last 24 years we’ve tried to have the biggest impact with the smallest footprint. Our goal has always been to stay small so we can keep making great typefaces. Our partnership with The Type Founders ensures this vision stays intact. We’ll keep making great typefaces while The Type Founders team manages our licensing and font library. Don’t worry, you can still find us in all the same places—looking forward to seeing you out there. With love, Eric and Nicole.”

We’ve been so busy we forgot to officially introduce Config Mono 😳
Config Mono brings the modern technical spirit of the Config family into a fixed-width format. Subtle refinements in the roman and italic enhance readability across digital and print. It handles small sizes beautifully — UI, coding, game consoles, captions — and brings the same composure to larger settings like magazines, textbooks, and packaging. Stylistic alternates offer added flexibility while keeping the design clean and versatile. Designed by Adam Ladd.

The true test of a stencil font. Does it stencil? Yes, it stencils. Spray paint, mylar stencil sheet, step back and blast away. Don’t get too fussy. Let it drip and bleed. Done.

What does it mean for a foundry to join The Type Founders? For @marksimonson it meant an entire team ready to help him take his legendary Proxima Nova into languages that he couldn’t on his own. We’re proud to work with Mark, and all of our foundries, and take their visions to all the places they’ve always dreamed about.
