About
A modular display family by Hamish Muir built as a layering system rather than a single typeface. Six styles, indexed Tephra 0, 12, 50, 100, 138 and 250, register against each other so designers can stack them in varying colours or effects to build bespoke compositions. Reach for it on posters, covers, identity work and any campaign where the typography itself needs to behave like a graphic system.
Classification
Dalton Maag describe Tephra as an ambitious display typeface offering an unusual approach to typography, with six styles designed to be layered with varying colours or effects so designers can create exceptional, one-of-a-kind results.
