About
Doobie draws its letterforms from a pair of early 1970s film types marketed as Hoopla and Scorpio, translating their rounded, flowing shapes into a digital display font. The design uses the simplest elements of art nouveau as filtered through 1970s counter-culture graphics, resulting in an openly playful and optimistic character. It is suited to contexts where a genuine period psychedelic flavour is needed rather than a cleaned-up approximation.
Classification
Based on early 1970s film type known as Hoopla and Scorpio; bubbly, wavy letterforms in the psychedelic art nouveau tradition.
