ABOUT

Kseniya Karataeva

Russian type designer associated with TypeType in Saint Petersburg, Russia. She is originally from Rostov-on-Don. In 2020, Antonina Zhulkova, Yulia Gonina and Kseniya Karataeva co-designed the octagonal typeface superfamily TT Octosquares at TypeType. TT Octosquares comes with a 3-axis variable type option.

Author of the monospace subfamily and the icon research for TypeType's superfamily TT Interphases (2019).

In 2020, she co-designed TT Lakes Neue, a 91-style sans family by Vika Usmanova, Antonina Zhulkova and Kseniya Karataeva at TypeTypType. Tt is a functional sans-serif that draws inspiration from Finnish signs of the functionalism era. TT Lakes Neue is an almost monolinear sans, with ovals in the form of rounded rectangles, reminiscent of Nebiolo's Microgramma. It comprises a useful variable font.

In 2020, she was part of the Type Type team that designed TT Ramillas, a 20-style high contrast transitional serif by Pavel Emelyanov, Marina Khodak, Yulia Gonina and Kseniya Karataeva. TT Ramillas also contains variable styles.

In 2021, Kseniya Karataeva and the TypeType team released the 21-style TT Travels Next, which is intended as a trendy and radical counterpart of TypeType's earlier font, TT Travels (2017).

Still in 2021, she designed TT Ricordi Greto, a non-contrasting Florentine caps-only sans-serif with dynamic proportions and a hint on what would be serifs, that was inspired by a floor plaque dating from 1423 found in the Basilica di Santa Croce in Florence. TT Ricordi Greto also has a variable format.
