Blumencott
Typeface Design
2022Inspired by the elegant hand lettering of the early twentieth century, Blumencott is a sophisticated and stable transitional serif designed for versatility.
AboutDrawing its roots from the partial 1902 type specimen known as Lippincott from the American Type Founders Company, Blumencott is a transitional serif typeface primarily intended for display contexts. Though chiefly designed to be used at a larger scale, the typeface can also function at smaller sizes for use as body copy.
Blumencott’s notable contrast in weight provides a sense of class and timeless charm that renders the typeface suitable for luxurious and upscale contexts. Blumencott also features a unique union of geometric influence and smooth curvature to create a structured yet approachable quality.
