At Roca
Arillatype · Pedro Arilla · 2023
A single-weight display serif by Pedro Arilla, drawing on Spaghetti Western aesthetics and classic curves for large-scale, expressive use.
About
Designed by Pedro Arilla and released in October 2023, At Roca is a display serif built around luxurious curves and distinct open counters that read clearly at headline sizes. The design draws an unlikely line between Spaghetti Western visual culture and contemporary display typography, with OpenType alternates for the 'a' and 'y' offering some compositional flexibility. With only a single Regular weight and no italic, it is a focused, single-purpose tool rather than a versatile family.
Classification
A single-weight display serif with pronounced curves and distinct counters, designed explicitly for large-size use, drawing on Spaghetti Western visual culture and classic elegance rather than text-setting conventions.
