A display typeface inspired by an old book cover found in a second hand book store in Tel-Aviv.

Although the reference is leaning on the dry-transfer lettering technique, I chose to take this lofi method to a more digital aesthetic.

The guideline I followed in the design process was the right angles and corners of the letters, that allow the type system to become semi-modular and repetitive, with mini “stairs” in the base of each glyph that eventually gave the typeface the name “Terrassa”.
