STGO TYPO
W Type Foundry · WTF Studio · 2023
A ten-style family drawn from found lettering across Santiago's streets, gathered during 2023 field research by WTF Studio.
About
Each of the ten styles — from Marmol and Block through to Carreton and Tag — is derived from lettering observed across different districts of Santiago, preserving the visual diversity of the city's graphic vernacular. The project was developed with support from Chile's Fondo Nacional de las Artes y la Culturas, positioning it as documentary as much as typographic. Available for non-commercial use under a personal licence.
Classification
A collection of typefaces sourced from found lettering in Santiago's streets, spanning multiple styles from block to script-adjacent forms; firmly display in character and purpose.
