About

Ysans began in 2011 as a bespoke typeface for Yves Saint Laurent Beauty, with several letters, the R, narrow U, and pointed f and t, drawn as a direct homage to the YSL logo. Ysans Mondrian is the same design rebuilt as a multi-layer colour font, named after Saint Laurent's Mondrian dress, and offered free for display headlines.

Classification
