About the family


Rivel is a lively, characterful display typeface inspired by the magic, irony and poetic tension of the circus. It balances humor and structure, softness and impact, creating a typographic voice that feels theatrical yet carefully controlled. Built around a distinctive round axis, Rivel offers total control over curvature and softness. Designers can modulate the personality of the letterforms — from crisp and assertive to fully rounded and playful — simply by adjusting the axis. This duality gives the typeface remarkable expressive range while maintaining visual coherence. The family includes multiple weights — Regular, Semibold, Bold and Black, each with corresponding Round versions — allowing for bold contrasts and layered typographic compositions. From subtle emphasis to powerful headlines, Rivel performs confidently at display sizes. A defining feature of Rivel is its extensive system of alternates. Every letter includes variant forms, and they operate through the contextual alternates OpenType feature. This means the typeface dynamically adapts as you type, generating natural variation, rhythm and movement within words and lines. The result is a living texture — expressive, fluid and never mechanically repetitive. Rivel thrives in posters, branding, editorial headlines, packaging and any project that embraces personality and visual storytelling. It evokes spectacle without chaos, playfulness without losing typographic discipline. Expressive, warm and unapologetically charismatic, Rivel is not just a typeface — it is a performance.
