Casagrande is a collection of vintage typefaces designed in close collaboration with Italian lettering artist, illustrator and calligrapher Alberto Casagrande.
The goal of the project was to use as inspiration Alberto's colorful, vintage themed digital illustration style to develop a suite of closely related typefaces that, used together, would allow designers to replicate the nostalgic charme of Italian poster and product design from the thirties and the forties. Two color overprints, coarse dithering, handmade calligraphy, reminiscences of art deco, hints of modernism and pop culture references: all this and more mixed in a exuberant and playful collection, created with illustrators, poster artists and book cover designers in mind.
Free version includes Casagrande Deco Inline weight, the full project contains 24-font package with six display families.
