Marseille Typeface

Type design



Brief
Inspired by the vibrant and historic city of Marseille, I set myself a challenge to design a typeface reflecting some of its unique and magical features.
Solution
Spending time in Marseille, I was struck by the city’s tightly packed architecture. The streets felt like a maze, with towering buildings crowding the narrow spaces between them. Yet, within these compact spaces, there’s an abundance of detail—so much to discover and take in. This sense of density and vibrancy inspired the form of my typeface: a design that leaves no space unused.
