À propos de la famille


Machado is a type family developed in 2022 exclusively for Editora Todavia (São Paulo, Brazil), crafted to establish the visual identity of the groundbreaking Machado de Assis Collection. Designed to complement the complete works of Brazil’s most celebrated writer, this type family merges literary tradition with editorial precision, delivering exceptional performance in long-form reading. Primarily intended for editorial design, Machado shines in books, literary collections, essays, magazines, newspapers, cultural catalogs, and institutional publications. Its balanced structure ensures comfortable reading over extended texts, while its refined details add character for covers, headlines, chapter openings, and complex typographic hierarchies. The family boasts an extensive character set and advanced typographic features, including true italics, small caps, multiple numeral styles, ligatures, and meticulously designed ornaments. These attributes provide remarkable flexibility for sophisticated editorial projects, enabling precise typographic control across various contexts and scales. Historically, Machado adopts a thoughtful and authorial approach: its italic is not a mechanical derivative of the roman, but an independently crafted system with its own construction logic, rhythm, and modulation. This design choice engages with classical typographic traditions and enhances the literary essence of the family, broadening its expressive range while maintaining overall coherence. In 2026, after the conclusion of its temporary license, the Machado family will officially join the TypeFolio library, becoming available for editorial, institutional, and cultural projects that require sophistication, consistency, and typographic rigor.

Machado Serifada

À propos Typefolio

Marconi Lima, founder of TypeFolio, has a deep passion for typographic forms, as highlighted in his Creative Characters interview. His love for books and reading has led him to appreciate that letters convey more than mere words. Based in Brazil, Marconi began his design career in an advertising agency in the mid-1990s, where he recognized the crucial role typography plays in communication and business. This experience sparked his interest in creating type families and understanding their designers. His agency work involved hand-drawing numerous ad layouts, packaging designs, and logotypes, offering him valuable insights into type design. This journey immersed him in the international type community, fostering essential relationships and enhancing his knowledge of type history and technology. His dedication culminated in the 2007 release of his first type family, Adriane Text, which was celebrated as a Rising Star and later recognized by Tipos Latinos. Since then, Marconi's involvement in the type business has grown significantly, allowing him to continue designing typefaces. The release of Madre Script in 2014 marked his transition from art director to the head of an independent foundry. By fully dedicating himself to TypeFolio, he strengthened its ties to the design market, resulting in diverse commissions ranging from icon creation and logo refinement to customizing typefaces from the TypeFolio library. Marconi finds the most rewarding aspect of typeface design in seeing how others utilize his fonts. As an independent type designer, he enjoys the freedom to navigate between projects that address specific needs and more informal endeavors, all rooted in his personal observations and ideas about typography and design. TypeFolio is distinguished by its commitment to innovative design and its deep connection to the evolving landscape of typography, making it a unique player in the industry.
