Niagara

Niagara is a revival of a typeface discovered in a Hollenstein foundry catalog, archived at the Museum für Gestaltung in Zürich. A typographic experiment from the 70s, Niagara brings an organic soul to the classic Shadow Type. I digitalized, extended and redesigned the existing glyphset into a variable font. The ability to animate letters fluidly brings a contemporary interpretation that pays homage to the original design.
