When we released Arizona in 2021, it was the first typeface to merge multiple genres into a single unified family. Serif, Text, Mix, Flare, and Sans — all in one font file. Even the haters respected the move. Today, we’re returning to the dust-blasted highway of imagination by adding two Compressed and Condensed subfamilies to this very-able toolbox.
For the campaign, we brought in a special guest who embodies the same hybrid spirit as Arizona: Berlin-based DJ, artist and singer horsegiirL.
Unreal stuff. We documented how this collab came about here.
Then, inspired by teen magazines that come with a foldout poster in the middle, we designed a newspaper that works in the same way. Five loose sheets, five posters, half type specimen, half reader. You can get it here.
And lastly, please take a look at Arizona and download its free font trials:
Just released: ABC Schengen
