Typothèque Bye Bye Binary · Marie Godefroy
A hand-calligraphed blackletter based on Gothic Bastarda, designed by Marie Godefroy with an inclusive glyph set for non-binary and gender-neutral writing in French.
About
Drawn from Godefroy's own calligraphy in the Gothic Bastarda tradition, this typeface carries a deliberately sharp and confrontational tone intended for queer-trans-feminist, decolonial and anti-capitalist contexts. It was developed partly for a diploma project on archives of events and gatherings within the gouine and queer community. A dedicated set of inclusive glyphs supports writing outside binary language conventions.
Classification
