About

Designed by Ian Party at Swiss Typefaces, SangBleu draws on the high-contrast, classical proportions of 18th-century French and Swiss type models. Cyrillic development was handled by Ilya Ruderman and Yury Ostromentsky of CSTM Fonts, with font engineering by Christoph Koeberlin. The family suits editorial, fashion and luxury contexts where historical pedigree and precision of form are required.
