Noria
Noria is a custom typeface created to be used as a graphic identity for el Lago Xochimilco in Mexico City. Noria’s shapes are inspired by carved and hancrafted letters and Mexican traditional signpainting.
Noria has 4 different weights, and many alternates, to be used for the specific needs of the place of Origin. The Family Rangel from a text typeface, designed for editorial use, to a Display version with very low contrast and minimal counters. This provides strength and character to the identity.
The 6-week type design programme that you’ve been waiting for starts on 6 June and ends 13 July 2023.
Our summer programme is in English and covers typeface design and calligraphy techniques, type history, and software practices. Every kind of design professional can learn about type design in a relatively short amount of time.
