Black Mamba specimen from Swiss Typefaces

A display serif derived from Swiss Typefaces' SangBleu family, distinguished by a custom set of alternate characters.

About

Built on the foundations of the SangBleu typeface, Black Mamba introduces a suite of alternate characters designed by Liudmila Bredikhina to give the family a distinct expressive register. Font engineering is credited to Christoph Koeberlin. The result sits between classical transitional proportions and something more characterful, suited to editorial titles and brand work where SangBleu's refinement is wanted with added personality.

Classification

Black Mamba is derived from the SangBleu typeface family by Swiss Typefaces, a transitional serif with strong classical proportions and refined stroke contrast. The alternate character set suggests a display-oriented variant with distinct stylistic personality.
