Urayasu specimen from Crown Type

A bold display typeface by Louie Mantia and Ender Smith evoking the graphic aesthetic of 1980s design.

About

Urayasu channels the visual energy of 1980s typography into a single bold display weight. Designed by Louie Mantia with Ender Smith, it targets editorial and branding contexts where a retro flavour is called for. The name references Urayasu, the city in Japan that is home to Tokyo Disneyland, suggesting a playful, theme-park-era nostalgia.

Classification

The 1980s aesthetic reference and display orientation place this firmly in the display category, with a retro subcategory reflecting its decade-specific revival styling.
