About Sagarana Font Family


Sagarana is an elegant display typeface rooted in the style of romantic or didones letterforms; however, it is a sans serif with a cleaner appearance. The contrast and the vertical stress maintain the modern style, while the terminals, the finials, the proportions and the narrow look enhance its stylish personality. It could be suitable for editorial projects such as magazines, books or even for sophisticated environments, let’s say, fashion, department store, perfumes, cosmetics and so on. Sagarana was initially inspired by a Brazilian book cover from 50’s. The name itself combines the words “saga” (as in the English sense of “story”) and “rana,” a Tupi word (Indigenous language) that roughly means “showing similarities”.

About Eller Type

Eller Type represents the latest endeavor in Emerson Eller's professional journey, focusing particularly on the art of type design. He is a professor, academic researcher, and independent type designer based in Brazil. Eller's type designs reflect his profound interest in history and vernacular culture. The foundry debuted with the release of the Sagarana font family in 2017, garnering considerable acclaim and ranking among the top twenty Hot New Fonts upon its release in Myfonts. Since then, Eller has delved deeper into type design matter, combining historical research and technical studies to develop the first text font, Itacolomi. This font family stems from extensive investigations into Scottish-style types crafted in Brazil circa 1820. Following that, Perva was published – an innovative multiple-classification font family inspired by display types from the 19th century. Alongside retail fonts, Eller Type's portfolio has continued to expand with commissioned works and collaborations. In short, Eller Type combines historical elements with contemporary trends to create high-quality fonts.
