Bodoni Mutant

by Tim Brayshaw

Bodoni Mutant takes the DNA of a classic Bodone and pushes it somewhere stranger. Tim Brayshaw kept the extreme thick-thin contrast and vertical stress you'd expect, but the letterforms are heavier and more exaggerated, with decorative quirks that feel like a Bodoni that's been left too close to a reactor. It's dramatic and elegant in equal measure, built for headlines and display work where you want high-contrast sophistication with a slightly unhinged edge.
