About Eurotypo

Our foundry is a collective of experimented type designers striving to produce quality fonts.

Eurotypo is an independent type foundry established in 2004 that focuses on research, design, and the production of new typefaces and large families of fonts. Originally formed in Santa Severa, Italy by Olcar Alcaide and Alberto Di Santo, the group has moved its headquarters to Valencia, Spain. Since then, Carine de Wandeleer has joined and become director of the team. We have been also focused in the education and the diffusion of the typography offering courses, workshops and lectures, as well as been organized exhibitions.

We are concentrate on the design and production of typefaces, our fonts are carefully handcrafted, all the formal and technical aspects of our fonts are controlled in much detail: readability, visibility and expressiveness as well as the OpenType features, kerning accuracy and hinting control. This web site showcases the Eurotypo library. Our fonts are available for licensing and secure electronic delivery through this site.

We practice what we preach

We believe in the quality of our craft. That’s why every headline, paragraph, and button on this website is composed using our own typefaces. We don't just sell fonts; we live by them.

Philosophy

All kind of typefaces, even the modern digital types designed by a computer, are based on different styles of letters. The link from painted, carved or engraved scripts to printed types, are particularly clear in the history of the evolution of the Latin alphabet and the contribution of scribes, calligraphers and designers. 

The way of drawing the letters of ancient scribes has served as initial source of knowledge and inspiration for the development of typeface design today. Our courses link by means of observation and experimentation, the great works of the past with new forms of design and digital technology. 

Eurotypo is a group of multi-disciplinary designers who are interest in research, design and the education of the typography.
