ABOUT







Marc Droz

Marc Droz's studio is called dreh GmbH. Designer at Nouvelle Noire in 2014 of NN Colroy, a Clarendon. The creation of Colroy started in 2009 during the CAS Typedesign at the Zurich University of the Arts and was completed as a font family with six cuts by 2014. Colroy received an Ed Award.

Proof&Co write about NN Colroy: Colroy is a Clarendon's Clarendon, if that makes any sense, There's something about hte unapologetic nature of the letterforms, the way the serifs stem out just far enough, the way the ball terminals aren't mincing any words, and the way the horizontal stress feels both mathematically and optically correct. The additional symbols and signage glyphs seems to hint at a desired use, which I don't mind. And the alternates are where the veil of propriety drops a little bit to be almost coy. Colroy is a well dressed party goer who impresses with charm and a sharp cuff at first impression, then lets the hair down after a little conversation and gives the whole room a little permission to have fun.
