Medley

We hope that our website gives you a glimpse of a future where type design fully embraces digital. Of course, this is just the beginning, and we are just two explorers finding our way in a new world of type, deeply passionate about creating a new type family. We believe that our website demonstrates the passion we have for our work, through typefaces, work in progress, and experimentation. Going forward, we will continue our prototyping processes, explore more languages and graphic territories, and transpose our new family of fonts into interfaces, layouts and visual universes. You can browse through the project here: lo-ol.design

    Medley

    Shape shifting serif with historical roots

    The Medley adventure started during an exploration of the Toulouse Scriptorium online archives. One piece struck us for its elegant, almost decorative, strokes. However, the typeface then became a true ‘medley’, drawing influence from uncial, Carolingian minuscule, and a more traditional approach of brush lettering.
