Tarallo Design [Donald Tarallo]

Donald Tarallo obtained a BA in Studio Arts and Graphic Design from Clark University, and an MFA in Graphic Design from Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). He also studied with André Gürtler and Wolfgang Weingart in the Weiterbildungsklasse at the Basel School of Design in Switzerland. Since 1998, Don has maintained a freelance practice working on projects in identity, publication, and web design. He has taught at Clark University, Guangzhou Academy of Fine Art, Rhode Island School of Design, Samsung Art and Design Institute, Siena Art Institute, and Bridgewater State University. Don currently teaches at Fitchburg State University in Fitchburg, MA.

In 2017, he published the geometric sans serif typeface Binario. Donald writes: The design was inspired by elements of Italian Art Deco, early 1900s advertising, and shop signage. Binario pays homage to early modernism's optimism, modularity, and efficiency. Binario was followed in 2019 by Binario Soft.

He also designed the geometric solid dingbat font FormPattern (+FormPattern Color, 2018; by Donald and Alex Tarallo) and the dingbat fonts Poeta and Poeta Color in 2017.

In 2018, he designed the 8-weight sans family Scanno.

In 2019, he released the zodiac sign font Starsigns, the art deco typeface Varese and FormPattern Color Three (2019: a typeface for creating borders and frames; with Alex Tarallo).

In 2020, he released FormPattern Color Six (done with Alex Tarallo) and the plump bubblegum art deco typeface Varese Soft.

Typefaces from 2021: East (a condensed sans in six weights; includes a variable font).
