ABOUT

Luis Castellón

Type designer from Madrid who published Sorella (2023-2024) at C-A-S-T. He participated in the Type@Cooper Extended program in 2023 and the EcTd at the Plantin Institute in 2022.

Sorella is based on the texts written and engraved by Angela Baroni for the book Beatae Mariae Virginis officium (Venice, 1740). He writes: In this rare volume, printed from engraved copper plates, Baroni opted for Fleischmann-like forms of serif in the capitals (such as E, F and T) some years before Fleischman himself. Luis Castellón's research on Baroni's hand and the initial designs of Sorella were honoured by Frank E. Blokland at the Experts Type Design Course in Antwerp in 2022.
