MegaMegaTypeType
A decorative display typeface from 1994 drawing on Old Russian ecclesiastical script, offered in three stylistic variants spanning sans and serif treatments.
About
Designed at Double Alex Font Studio by Alexey Chekulaev and Alexey Gunin, the typeface takes its visual cues from Old Russian calligraphic letterforms, with angular, compressed strokes and pronounced thick-thin contrast visible in the specimen. Three styles – One, One Sans and One Serif – offer related treatments of the same underlying design. Its ornamental character suits vintage and magazine contexts.
Classification
The specimen shows tall, narrow letterforms with strong blackletter-inspired angularity and Cyrillic calligraphic influence, with dramatic thick-thin contrast and pointed terminals rooted in Old Russian ecclesiastical script traditions. Classified as display due to its highly ornamental, period-specific character.
