About the family


Cowboya is a typography with concave Tuscan serif very contrasted and modernist inspiration with letters in small caps, includes 4 versions of the font that can be used by superimposed layers which results in multicolored typographic titles. For the design of this typeface I was inspired by the credit titles used in the black film directed by Frizt Lang in 1950 called "The House of the River", to the drawing of the original forms of the letters i added decorative elements to give the fonts a festive character, traditionally this type of decorative fonts that emerged in Italy in the nineteenth century were used in large headlines and posters that were closely related to circus shows, carnival or environments of the Far West American. I have also rounded the sharper joints of the antlers and counterforms to create a contrast with the sharp Tuscan serifs which brings a modern background of retro inspiration and soft shapes.

About deFharo

deFharo is the independent type foundry of Spanish graphic and type designer Fernando Haro. With more than 30 years of experience in graphic and advertising design and over a decade devoted to typeface design, Fernando Haro has developed an eclectic body of work that ranges from editorial and corporate typefaces to expressive display, geometric, technological, retro and experimental designs. His approach combines visual character with typographic functionality. Every typeface begins with drawing, proportion and a clear visual idea, and evolves through meticulous work on spacing, metrics, kerning, optical corrections and OpenType features. Rather than following a single recognizable style, deFharo explores different typographic territories according to the personality and purpose of each project. Some families are designed for long-form reading and editorial systems; others are built for branding, headlines, packaging, signage or highly expressive graphic compositions. A strong interest in vector drawing, typographic systems and functional design runs throughout the collection. Alternative characters, small caps, Petite Caps, fractions, numerals, ligatures, symbols and extended language support are frequently developed as integral parts of the typeface rather than as afterthoughts. The result is a growing collection of typefaces designed to be both distinctive and useful — fonts with personality, but also with the technical precision required for professional graphic and editorial work. deFharo typefaces are designed by Fernando Haro and published independently from Spain.
