Paris Metro

by David Rakowski · Website

Paris Metro is a bold, decorative display face by David Rakowski inspired by the iconic lettering of the Paris Métropolitain station entrances, with their distinctive Art Nouveau curves and heavy strokes. The letterforms carry that unmistakable early-1900s French elegance, ornamental but sturdy, built for headlines, posters, and branding that needs to feel both vintage and confident. It works best at large sizes where the decorative details and thick proportions can really come through.
