Bohemia

Eduardo Manso

Bohemia has been conceived by the intention to be used supporting a good "performance" in all sizes. Not inspired in by a concrete model, it’s a modern vision of a whole epoch: the typographical atmosphere of the ends of the 19th century. Bohemia brings together the characteristics of the transition typefaces and the modern ones, being his principal axis vertical. Nevertheless, the transition of the thick outlines to the thin ones is harmonic, in contrast with many typefaces of its style.
