Plethora PlethoraPlethora

Designed by Alejandro Paul, Plethora is a serif font family. This typeface has twenty styles and was published by Sudtipos.


A few years ago I’ve discovered the work of one of the most prolific typeface designers of the Bruce type Foundry in NYC during late nineteenth century. Browsing Julius Herriet’s work I found a very unique kind of ligatures in his patented “Old Style Ornamented” type design. Some letters were designed with a little top tail that allowed them to connect to each other. After that, I found that he also designed a single italic weight of the same font 7 years later.

Since the beginning of the Opentype days I’ve been deeply obsessed with exploring different ways to build ligatures, so that lead me up to this point where I felt the need to create “Plethora”, this new font inspired by Herriet’s work. Extrapolating weights, adding variable technology and playing with additional interconnected letters and alternates. Definitely, Plethora means a large or excessive amount of something, and this font tries to bring back this abundance of details two centuries later. Available in 9 weights, from roman to italic, and also as variable format, “Plethora” supports plenty of latin languages and is a perfect choice for today’s design tides.

Designed by Brian J. Bonislawsky, Jim Lyles and John W. Zimmerman, Artisinal is an art deco font published by Stiggy & Sands. Download Artisinal Font Family From Stiggy & Sands Historical Art Deco typestyle finds new legs as a Revival Artisinal, not to be confused with the term artisanal, is our revival of the Art Deco typeface known as Cubist Bold, by John W. Zimmerman for Barnhardt Bros. & Spindler in 1929, breathes new life into a classic. The original metal cast typeface was designed without a lowercase, as well as some wedge serif capitals that made for not always perfect pairings. We’ve created a lowercase that blends well with the original design to give the typeface more usability. We’ve also created a fully sans version of the capitals as the default set, and moved the original wedge serif capital styles to a contextual alternates feature.
