Coco

a juicy and youthful display type inspired by a vendor's hand-painted sign ↧

We're all nuts for coconuts!
Coco is an expressive single weight display typeface inspired by a New York street vendor's hand-painted signs. The original sign was super bubbly and juicy and we refined the characters by slimming them down and rounding off the edges.
