ABOUT

Oscar & Ewan

Designers in East London and Stockholm. For the Spanish magazine Neo2, they created the experimental Laser Font (2008). In 2012, they published the rounded display sans typeface Leroy (Regular, Backslant) at Colophon. They explain: Leroy was based on a technical drawing found in a 60s model car magazine. The type was drawn with a lettering set, a system used around that time to letter maps and other precision drawings. It was presumably similar to Keuffel & Esser's Leroy set, hence the name. Leroy was designed for use on Bonobo's Black Sands album, which was released on Ninja Tune in 2010.
