About Bronzo Font Family


This is a 2023 redesign of Bronzo, originally designed by Rick Valicenti and Mouli Marur in 1991. With this redesign, Bronzo now has 6 new weights, for a total of 9, and 587 more glyphs than it was able to in 1991.

Bronzo appears to move forward, yet remain still, via a center stroke that only sticks out on the left, a tense curve that only happens on the right, and a width that sits uncomfortably between square and rectangle. Those three things, combined with a balanced light to dark ratio, are what makes Bronzo appear tense and ready.

Bronzo accepts Modernist ideals of minimal, rational construction—but it also adopts luxuriant shapes over Modernism’s sandblasted neutrality. It’s almost an alternate reality, a “what if?” of Modernism. Modernism’s fun, interesting, cute reboot.

About XO Type Co

Typefaces made in Chicago; proud to have made Chicago's official typeface, Big Shoulders which is free for anyone to use. An X and O are two of the most primal marks a person can make. We use those marks to close messages to people we care for. Making new letterforms is making new ways for people to say “Hey there, kamutsa, bom dia, zdrávo, kako ste! I see you over there, and I want to show you something I’ve written. I’d love to see something you’ve written, too.”
