About Alimentary Font Family


Alimentary (adjective): relating to nourishment or sustenance. If you've seen my other fonts, you know I tend to lean into food-based names. This name has to do with food and science combined, so it's double nerdy in the ways I like to be nerdy! I started with Alimentary Medium, which was inspired by my shorter, wider font MacGuffin - I wanted something taller, narrower, with a hip and retro feel. When I finished the Medium weight, I felt like I wanted a Light weight. Then a Heavy weight. Then I figured, "what the heck," and made an outline version of the Medium weight too. In the end, I wound up with four members of the Alimentary family, each with over 700 glyphs! Not only do they all have the basics (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and tons of punctuation), but they also each have 330 characters for European language support, and a limited selection of Greek, Coptic, and Cyrillic characters. Plus a double handful of alternates and ligatures to add a little variety to your designs! And of course, all of the Alimentary fonts are super-smoothed, with reduced nodes and clean curves, so whether you're cutting them out, printing them, engraving them, or using them in a way I haven't even thought of, these fonts will be sharp and crisp!

About Missy Meyer

Missy Meyer has decades of lettering and illustration under her belt; when looking to change careers in her 40s, graphic design seemed like the perfect way to go. She soon found her way into font design, and has been in love ever since. She specializes in quirky, casual, fun fonts that don't take themselves too seriously, but are still clean and easy to work with. (What did she do before design? It's been an amazing variety of jobs, including: bank teller, pizza chef, accountant, camp counselor, casino dealer, singing improv comedian, and game show host at Walt Disney World.)
