Zimbardi (was: Zimbardi Calomino) [Flavia Zimbardi] The Brazilian duo of Flavia Zimbardi (b. Rio de Janeiro) and Caetano Calomino, a signpainter and lettering artist in Brooklyn, NY, formed Zimbardi Calomino. In 2018, using a speed stroke technique, Caetano developed the signpainter font ZC Casual together with Flavia. In 2019, Flavia Zimbardi released Lygia at Future Fonts: Lygia explores the duality of sharp and round forms with stylish cues and historical references from 16th-century masterpieces by Robert Granjon to the geometric approach of W.A. Dwiggins. An homage to Brazilian neo-concrete artist Lygia Clark, originally designed in 2017 as Flavia Zimbardi's degree project for the Type@Cooper extended program in New York. Lygia is a variable font with a weight axis. After Type@Cooper, Flavia settled in Berlin, Germany. In 2021, she released the companion typeface family Lygia Sans, with a further update in 2022.
