About Olivetta Font Family


Olivetta—an ironic sans. Its name is inspired by Antique Olive typeface. These two fonts share a few common design features but Olivetta is more in tune with the spontaneous, ironic style of today's typefaces. Olivetta illustrates the power of words as images. The high contrast between thick and thin strokes of the lowercase letterforms gives visual strength to the font. The stroke contrast increases as the weights get heavier. Olivetta comes in 10 weights with matching italics and each style contains more than 400 glyphs which include alternates. The lightest weights work well in subtle headlines while the heaviest ones are perfect for posters, short texts, branding and editorial design. The intermediate weights are ideal for continuous reading.

About Los Andes

Located in Concepción, Chile, Los Andes was established in 2011 by Daniel Hernandez, Miguel Hernandez and Luciano Vergara as a spin-off of LatinoType. Their goal was simple: to make typefaces that would simplify the job of the designers who used them. The young foundry published its first typeface, Pantano, that same year and the rest, as they say, is history. With talented designers such as Mendoza Vergara, Daniel Hernández, Luciano Vergara, and Miguel Hernández in its ranks, Los Andes has created a library full of vast variations including everything from bestselling headliner typefaces like Darwin to grunge-inspired rustic families like Pantano. “Our typefaces tell stories,” Luciano says, “we are inspired by travel, nature, experiences and tastes when we design typefaces.” One of their more recent releases, Garden, was inspired by the cheerful and warm people the designers encountered when visiting Brazil in 2013. A young foundry with a wide range of talents and endless inspiration, keep an eye out for more typefaces from Los Andes!
