About Puzzler Font Family


With Puzzler, Zuzana Licko revisits and expands upon some of her earlier forays into decoration and geometric constructions of abstract elements. Says Licko: "I've always been intrigued by patterns; the abstract dot compositions of blown-up halftone photographs, the interference patterns of superimposed grids known as moire, and the shadows of tree leaves on the sidewalk. These were some of the inspirations for the Puzzler patterns." Some Puzzler elements started as dot grids of various sizes and frequencies, while others started as leaf or floral shapes that were arranged into interlocking compositions. In fact, many came about as happy accidents; some elements looked too random or uninteresting until their repetitions surprised her with unexpectedly fluid patterns. The elements are arranged into three categories of fonts: Puzzler Halftone, Puzzler Geometric and Puzzler Floral. Each element is accessed through a letter on the keyboard, making it easy to repeat elements with precise scaling and positioning.

About Emigre

Emigre, Inc. is a digital type foundry based in Berkeley, California. Founded in 1984, coinciding with the birth of the Macintosh computer Emigre were among the early adaptors to the new digital technology. From 1984 until 2005 Emigre published the legendary Emigre magazine, a quarterly publication devoted to visual communication. Emigre created some of the very first digital layouts and typeface designs winning them both world-wide acclaim and much criticism. The exposure of these typefaces in Emigre magazine eventually lead to the creation of Emigre Fonts, one of the first independent type foundries utilizing personal computer technology for the design and distribution of fonts. They created the model for hundreds of small foundries who followed in their footsteps.
