DSType’s Dino dos Santos has been designing custom typefaces for magazines and corporations since 1994. We love his Anubis, a punchy, contemporary unicase design that’s confident enough to quote from historical sources. Dino tells us that Kartago is inspired by Roman inscriptions in ancient Carthage — we look at it as a delicate, playful alternative to the senatorial sternness of Trajan. Instead of the usual character set, it provides a delightful set of ligatures. Aquila is an elegant and legible text face with unusual serif treatment. Its italic is cursive and narrow, making the whole face reminiscent of Gill’s Joanna. Monox is a large super-family of monospace fonts – sans and serif versions, each in 5 weights, with italic and smallcaps.
