Type Brut

Brian LaRossa started Type Brut, a display type foundry, in 2014. Its typefaces grow from art-historical lettering, including examples found in early twentieth-century avant-garde magazines and works of art. Complete alphabets are developed from a handful of existing letters—each typeface is part revival, part invention. The foundry’s Staatliches typeface is available through Google Fonts.
