Locarno

Locarno is the work of British designer Alan Meeks and is his adaptation of Rudolf Koch’s original design for the Klingspor Type Foundry. The unique design of the roman weight features geneous capitals and a reserved lowercase. The italic capitals have an open, engraved decoration that combines perfectly with the lowercase with its tall, elegant ascenders. Locarno is a typeface with the sophisticated look of the 1920s and 30s.
