Similar to Artifex? A hybrid, playful Serif.

poms7 September 2007 · 01:37

Hi,

i'm looking for a deco serif similar to the style of Artifex/Kimera Type Foundry.
http://www.kimeratype.com/pdf/specimenArtifex.pdf
Artifex is cool (and maybe would match on a "fashion"-project which is in the pipeline), but it is missing lining figures and has only one style (regular), no italics*, no thicker weights.
Can you suggest me s.th. similar? Keywords: Deco, hybrid, playful, sharp, "feminine", but not totally "over the top"…

*this is not so important

Artifex is fabulous and fortunately there's nothing like it. I'll post something soon though that may fit your criteria...

Zingha and pretty much anything by Xavier Dupré.

Zingha matches almost all of my keywords. I think about, thanks.

I looked and looked and came up with Zingha too... :-)
