Marche specimen from Colophon

A square-edged display face originally designed for a single issue of photography magazine HOTSHOE, inspired by European market signage from French village shops to Calais hypermarkets.

About

Available in a single Super weight with corresponding forward and backward slanting variants, Marché draws from the Eurostile tradition whilst adding its own emphatic character suited to display and editorial use. It comes in Standard and Professional versions, the latter featuring additional OpenType features. The backslant variant is an unusual addition, offering a stylised counterpoint to the more conventional forward oblique.

Classification

Square, impactful letterforms with Eurostile-adjacent DNA place this firmly in the geometric display category. The inclusion of forward and backward slanting variants reinforces its decorative, emphatic purpose rather than extended text setting.
