Melancholy

by Vladimir Fedotov

Melancholy is a tall, thin condensed display face by Vladimir Fedotov with an Art Deco skeleton and a quiet elegance to its geometric construction. The uppercase-only letterforms are narrow and deliberate, with the kind of vertical emphasis and decorative restraint you'd expect on a 1930s theater marquee or luxury packaging. Best at large sizes for headlines and branding where you want something refined and atmospheric without being ornate.
