Meze specimen from Atypical

An almost-square vernacular display face copied from 1920s lettering on an Athens café wall.

About

Meze is inspired by lettering on the walls of the Terpsithea café in Athens' Psirri neighbourhood, photographed around 1920. Its almost-square design suits book titles, posters, web headings, logos and wall lettering, with lowercase and Cyrillic added in later updates.

Classification
