Wanted: Chiseled but Elegant

Locash

I am looking for a typeface that is inspired by traditional Mexico that has the elegance of a Bodoni with the angles of a Latin. Any suggestions?

I’m really bullish on Oneleigh but haven’t found a use for it yet. Maybe has more character than you want tho.

Try Eduardo Manso’s Bohemia. I wouldn’t say that it’s “traditional Mexico” per se, but it is Latin in flavor.

Traditional Mexico?... Patzcuaro
