A caps-only decorative sans by Jean-Baptiste Morizot, drawing on doubled strokes, mirrored letterforms and jewelled centres inspired by medieval illuminated manuscripts and 18th-century ornamented typefaces.
About
Bobo's single Regular style conceals considerable internal variety: some capitals feature doubled strokes, others omit expected elements, and several contain circular ornaments at their centres recalling illuminated manuscript lettering. A Stylistic Set provides a completely alternate uppercase alphabet, accented variants and a more dynamic numeral set. The .notdef character is rendered as a skull, and the name references the "bourgeois Bohemian" archetype.
Classification
Caps-only display sans with strong decorative character: doubled strokes, mirrored letterforms, jewelled centres and unicase-style variants place it firmly in the display/decorative category despite a mono-linear, low-contrast structure.
