About Angostura Font Family


Step back in time with Angostura, a sans-serif typeface that captures the vibrant spirit of America’s golden age. This typographic gem evokes the swagger of 1940s diners, the glamour of 1950s Hollywood, and the optimism of a nation in full swing.

Angostura’s DNA is unmistakably rooted in the iconic American sign lettering that defined an era. Its low crossbars pay homage to the sleek industrial deco signage that adorned the cityscapes of yesteryear, while the monocular “a” and “g” tip their hat to the mid-century Futura craze. The result? A typeface that’s both a time capsule and a fresh voice for modern design.

But Angostura isn’t content to be a one-trick pony. This versatile typeface family runs the gamut from Hairline to Black, offering designers a full palette to paint with words. Need to channel the grit of a back-alley speakeasy? The heaviest weights have you covered. Looking for the elegance of a high-end department store window? The lighter styles step up to the plate.

For those seeking to push the envelope further, Angostura unveils its ace in the hole—spray-paint, wood grain, and stencil variants. These special editions employ clever ligatures to create custom letter pairs, infusing your work with an authenticity that practically leaps off the page. It’s like having a master sign painter at your fingertips, ready to bring your vision to life with every keystroke.

Angostura’s language support is as expansive as the American dream itself. From the bustling streets of Gothenburg to the sun-drenched plazas of Madrid, this typeface speaks fluently in a multitude of Latin-based tongues. Your message will resonate loud and clear, whether you’re designing for a local diner or an international ad campaign.

In a world of cookie-cutter designs, Angostura stands tall—a beacon of individuality in a sea of conformity. It’s more than just a font; it’s a time machine, a storyteller, and a creative powerhouse all rolled into one. So why settle for the ordinary when you can infuse your projects with a dose of mid-century magic?

Grab a bottle of Angostura and mix up something extraordinary. Your designs will thank you, and your audience? They’ll be shaken, stirred, and coming back for more.
