ALT Riviera - Grotesk Typeface

Typography
We're delighted to announce the release of ALT Riviera.

ALT Riviera leans into the lighthearted and geometric aesthetics of Grotesks, but developing the typeface’s quirks early on played a major part in establishing the personality and essence of the design system. ALT Riviera is also a typeface of contrasts, with Boggio pitting ‘hard’ against ‘soft’ forms. In particular, she emphasises the hard shoulders of R, G, and f. “It’s really satisfying to me to look at the contrast between sharp and soft,” she says, “it’s like they’re fighting initially but no one can win so they end up making it work.”


Equipped with over 600+ glyphs, major Latin language support (Basic Latin, Latin A extended and 13% Latin B extended) and a considerable number of quirky symbols that reflect Boggio's playful and creative nature, ALT Riviera exists as a Grotesk to give it's partner, whether that be a brand identity, work mark or primary type choice in a graphical system, the tools to pack a real punch.
