Dinamo Typefaces · Seb McLauchlan with Luke Charsley
A sprawling nine-family type system built over six years, drawing on Eurozone logistics and infrastructure as its visual and thematic foundation.
About
Designed by Seb McLauchlan with Luke Charsley, the system organises itself around three proportional families, A, B and C, which shift aesthetic register as their width increases, moving from Helvetica-like softness toward the boxy authority of Eurostile. Each has a monospaced equivalent, and three further families, Core, Line and Zone, extend the system into slab, inline and stripped-back territory. Latin, Cyrillic and Greek coverage means the family can handle all European languages implicated in the cross-border transport networks that inspired it.
Classification
A geometric sans system drawing on Helvetica and Eurostile as reference points, with proportional and monospaced variants across multiple widths, plus expressive offshoots with slab and inline treatments.
