About Grafika Font Family


Grafika is a completely original design, done in an “Art Deco” spirit reminiscent of the 1920s and ‘30s. I designed Grafika many years ago to be typeset for title cards, and both opening and end credits for the Merchant/Ivory feature film “Savages”. After the film, the design languished in my archives until I rediscovered it. I have digitally redrawn Grafika, completing it with all the alternates, ligatures, math, foreign accented characters and punctuation that weren’t required of the original design for film. Grafika is strongest when set in upper and lowercase—its unique caps extending below the baseline—although all caps settings are encouraged as well.

About Alphabet Soup

For most of his career Michael Doret has been well known as a letterforms artist and designer whose work has overlapped the areas of lettering, illustration and graphic design. Although the work always involved lettering, it was a very different discipline from the world of font design. Recently he expanded his letterforms work into that area under the name "Alphabet Soup Type Founders". Having been a letterforms artist for many years, he believes that he brings a very different perspective to the art of font design from most other foundries. He's now bringing these years of experience of creating art with letterforms to bear on his font design efforts, so that with each new font released he's pushing the envelope and coming up with something new, or a novel twist on the familiar.
