TYPEFACES


I have designed several typefaces based on my own ink drawings and calligraphy. In my typographic design, as in all my artwork, I aim to make things that are both strikingly original and vigorously medieval. I have several typefaces currently available for purchase, and more in development.

Click on the buttons below to purchase typefaces at my Patreon store. The listed price for each typeface is for a desktop license for a single device. Contact me at danielmitsui@danielmitsui.com if you are interested in purchasing a commercial license, a web license, or anything else.
