A Typeface That Connects: A Contemporary Ode to Gothic Ornamentation

This typeface is more than a collection of letters; it’s a system of connections. Inspired by the rich, intricate beauty of gothic architecture and decoration, every character is designed not merely as an isolated form, but as a piece of a larger whole. Like the interlacing arches, spires, and tracery that define gothic structures, each letter is shaped to seamlessly link with the next—creating a continuous, flowing visual.

The goal was to blur the boundaries between letter, word, and sentence. Rather than standing apart, they merge into an organic, unified composition. The typeface invites the reader to not just read, but to explore—a textual tapestry where meaning and form intertwine.

With its ornate details and structural logic, the typeface balances historical reference with contemporary experimentation. It’s both a tribute and a transformation: taking the spirit of gothic ornament and translating it into a typographic system that encourages connection, expansion, and visual storytelling.
