A variable monoline script by Roland Hörmann, spanning three widths and three slant directions — from tight left-leaning to wide upright — drawn from neon signage and street-tagging traditions.
About
Giramisu shifts across a variable design space defined by width (Tight to Wide) and slant (Left, Straight, Right), covering a range of -26 to 26 degrees. Letters connect throughout most of the design space, with deliberate gaps at tighter settings to maintain legibility, and isolated capital forms support all-caps setting. Honoured with the JBA Award 2024 in bronze.
Classification
A monoline connected script drawing formal influence from 20th-century neon signage and urban tagging. The uniform stroke weight and fluid letterforms place it firmly in the script category, with display intentions throughout its variable design space.
