ABOUT







Stefania Malmsten

Stefania Malmsten is a Swedish art director and a graphic designer with clients mainly in the fields of art, fashion and film. She was one of the founders of Pop and Bibel magazines in Sweden and is a former art director at Vogue Hommes International in Paris. In 2006, Stefania Malmsten received The Berling Prize, Sweden's most prestigious graphic design-prize. In 2013, Stefania founded the design studio Malmsten Hellberg together with designer Ulrika Hellberg. Stefania is currently the Creative Director at Rodeo Magazine in Sweden.

She co-designed the thin display typeface Line in 2013 with Göran Söderström (Letters from Sweden). The typeface was originally designed for Swedish fashion and culture magazine Rodeo in 2012 before it was released for commercial use at the end of 2013. Line comes in 5 super thin styles. The thinnest is possibly the thinnest typeface commercially available anywhere.

During the work with Rodeo magazine, Stefania got the idea for a typeface that would be the exact opposite of Line---a heavy face where the counter spaces in the characters would correspond to the differents widths in Line. The idea was shelved at the time but was used as a custom face for the documentary Maj 68. Inline is available since 2021 from Letters from Sweden in three widths, with seven optical variants in each width. Included is also a variable font.
