Cocosignum
Zetafonts · Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini · 2017
An Art Deco display family drawing on Italian 1930s typography, pairing imperial propagandist uppercase forms with a geometric cursive lowercase.
About
Designed by Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini and released in 2017 as part of the Christmas Vibes set, Cocosignum comes in two distinct subfamilies: Corsivo Italico, which combines the monumental uppercase with a cursive geometric script lowercase, and Maiuscoletto, which leans into the small-capitals register. Both run across five weights from Ultralight to Heavy, and the family covers 205 languages across Latin, Greek and Cyrillic scripts. The propaganda-deco overtones of the uppercase give it a period flavour suited to packaging, branding and editorial work with a retro Italian sensibility.
Classification
Cocosignum blends imperial Art Deco uppercase lettering with a geometric cursive lowercase, placing it firmly in the display category with a distinct Italian 1930s propaganda-deco aesthetic.
