Cecilia OTF

Cecilia Azcarate commissioned us to create a custom, exclusive typeface for her design identity.

Inspired by the pre-romantic Greco-Roman era and the frescoes and engravings of that time, the goal was to craft a font that embraces imperfection — even a touch of the strange.

With a wide range of alternate glyphs, this custom typeface is playful and expressive, giving Cecilia a unique, characterful, and slightly magical typographic voice. Each letter carries the charm of the engraving process and the passage of time, translated into a digital design full of personality.
