About
Commissioned by Mevis & Van Deursen for the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen identity, Boymans takes its structural cues from Lance Wyman's 1968 Mexico City Olympics typeface. Ten weights, each available in single, double and triple line versions, produce 30 styles in total; layering or colouring these variants generates near-endless typographic combinations. The face is not available for commercial licensing.
