ABOUT

Atipo

Design studio in Gijon, Spain, set up by Asturian designers Raul Garcia del Pomar and Ismael Gonzalez. One of them studied graphic design in Salamanca. Atipo produced the donationware typeface Cassannet in 2012. This beautiful sans typeface is modeled after art deco lettering by Cassandre. It was adjusted and expanded to six styles in 2016 as Cassannet Plus.

In 2012, they published the free twitterware round sans family Bariol, which has its own dedicated web page. This was followed by the wonderful set of icons called Bariol Icons. In 2015, they published the tweetware / donationware rounded typeface family Bariol Serif.

Typefaces from 2013: Salomé (a fat didone, +Stencil, +Italic, +Deco). Dedicated web page.

The text typeface Calendas (2011, Paula Gutierrez). Additional weights were custom-made for the magazine Town & Country.

They created a bespoke wayfinding font / icon set for London Luton Airport in 2014.

Typefaces from 2015: Geomanist---I guess the name comed from geometric and humanist. In general, I can't imagine a worse marriage but this one actually works.

Typefaces from 2016: Seville (a custom font for Fitbit Blaze, based on Bariol), Semcon (for the Swedish engineering firm Forsman & Bodenfors).

Typefaces from 2017: Archia (a technical / architectural sans family), Noway (Noway was originally designed as a corporate and signage typeface for London Luton Airport. It has 159 icons and five weights, and is an ideal wayfinding font family), Noway Round.

Typefaces from 2018: Solano & Catalan (a corporate typeface), Aceña (a corporate typeface), Silka (a geometric descendant of Futura), Musetta (a fashion mag thin sans), Basier (a Helvetica-style neutral sans family with horizontal and vertical terminals, with a choice of round or square tittles).

Typefaces from 2019: Parking (an all caps art deco by Marc Valli), Basier Mono, Bould, Chaney (caps only, for display).

Typefaces from 2020: Sawton (a 15-style monolinear condensed geometric sans family consisting of Circular, Industrial and Bauhaus subfamilies), Silka Mono, Wotfard (a malleable geometric sans: time for soulful functionality), Argesta (a fashion mag typeface).

Typefaces from 2021: Novela ( a rational serif for use in texts), Izoard and Izoard Soft (a monolinear sans inspired by the text on the monument atop the mythical Col d'Izoard in France which is frequently featured in the Tour de France), Strawford (a 14-style monolinear neo-geometric sans), Scilla Display ( an elegant high-contrast serif typeface inspired by the shapes of the flowers with sharp edges and organic curves).

Typefaces from 2022: N27 (an over-the-top hipster sans classified as avant-garde by Atipo), Stampa (an all caps sans serif typeface inspired by La Stampa's nameplate used by the weekly's sports supplement in Turin in 1902).
