CORRUPTA

TYPEFACE DESIGN
PROJECT DETAILS
Corrupta is elegance with power, a rose with thorns. It's a beauty that corrupts the soul.
This typeface is a reaction to contemporary design trends, designed with the intent to reject the simple, uninspiring minimalist style from the modern era.
I wanted to bring back the beauty, energy and extravagance from the Art Noveau design movement that I felt was lacking in modern design.
This calligraphic serif is a hybrid typeface that weaves the elegant nature of Art Noveau and the forbidden nature of its Blackletter/medieval typeface roots. This typeface lures you in with its free-flowing strokes, angled stresses and geometric curves. Its razor-sharp serifs and high contrast widths give a hint of its corrupt nature hidden within.
