Maurizio feels like Italian bellezza as the evening sun accompanies the second glass of strong red wine on the shores of the Mediterranean. Maurizio is a display typeface suitable for large screens and big stages—the bigger, the better. Only at large sizes do its design features fully reveal themselves: razor-sharp serifs, open lobes in the “g”, twisted dots on “i” and “j”.
The Italic, designed by Nina Botthof, adds subtle tenderness to the condensed and rigid design. The exaggerated end strokes in the lowercase letters create a distinctive rhythm in the Italic styles while staying true to the original design.
Maurizio is an exploration of how far interpolation can be stretched in a super high-contrast display typeface. The design goal was to make the entire family interpolable from one extreme to the other. Only the two extremes—Hairline and Black—were drawn by hand, in both Roman and Italic. Almost everything in between has been interpolated.
