Grotzec Font Family

The Grotzec Family was originally designed for the Surf Portugal magazine while Feliciano was the magazine’s art director. The typeface is inspired by early European grotesques found in late 19th-century posters and advertisement ephemera. While the shapes follow the close models of the time, some formal aspects of Grotzec help the typeface stand out from a typical grotesque typeface. Details such as different curve speeds in the exterior and interior of the letter shapes give the typeface a subtle humanistic touch.
