About the family


Cara, meaning “friend” in Irish, is a re-imagined decorative font derived from a print sample in a book originally published in 1914 and aimed to aid and inspire creative professionals at the time.

In updating and modernizing the font, we initially created the family as a Sans Serif font by designing a complete extended Latin character set, complete with new alternates, ligatures, and Welsh characters. From there, we built back out the Serif version, to reflect the original intent of the sample.

The family is mainly designed for decorative uses in posters, prints, etc. but is quite legible and readable in small bursts of typeset copy to enhance any project. It’s heritage is derived from the Art Nouveau movement but that can be extended to any modern design purpose for today’s creative professional.
