Vain – Angel Baby Boys
Céline Hurka Type Foundry · Céline Hurka · 2026
A single-style display font pairing each letter of the Latin alphabet with a hand-drawn Borzoi, with a Toy Poodle standing in as the sole punctuation mark.
About
Developed as a companion to Vain, a flared sans created for the identity of Detour Platform, Angel Baby Boys replaces conventional letterforms with 52 dog illustrations: 26 Borzoi initials on the uppercase and 26 free-running Borzois on the lowercase. A single Toy Poodle named Koos guards the only punctuation character included. The set is entirely the work of Céline Hurka, born from a year-long obsession with Borzois that never resulted in actual dog ownership.
Classification
A pictorial display font in which uppercase and lowercase Latin letters are each paired with hand-drawn dog illustrations – Borzois for the alphabet and a Toy Poodle for punctuation – making it a purely decorative, illustrative typeface rather than a functional text face.
