Joyse specimen from Almarena

A display sans by Jérémie Gauthier with four stylistic variants, blending exaggerated curves with sharp breaks drawn from post-modernist and vintage graphic sources.

About

Released in 2025, Joyse spans nine weights per style, each with matching italics, across four subfamilies: Original, Straight, Smooth and Classic. The design draws on the visual language of vinyl sleeve lettering and neon signage, pairing generous rounded forms with abrupt angular cuts. Available as both static OTF files and a variable font with weight and italic axes, it is aimed at logotypes, poster work and editorial contexts where strong graphic presence is needed.

Classification

A display sans-serif with exaggerated curves and sharp angles drawn in four distinct stylistic variants; its vintage-inflected, high-contrast character places it firmly in the display category rather than a neutral sans-serif.
