Dutch Mafia Display Typeface
A self-initiated project born from my childhood experiences growing up in a Dutch immigrant family.
The ornamental artifacts found in Dutch culture were the base that inspired the creation of this display font. Everything from fancy accouterments—including Delft pottery, wooden shoes, and doilies—to the unique architecture, cultural dress, traditions, and folk tales all defined the font. Though the style is simple in form, it conveys the unique and playful cultural background of Dutch society. In collaboration with Kurt Devlaeminck.
