ALAMO
Alamo is a typeface created in response to the production and craft of wood type.  
The striking appearance and versatile application techniques of wood type make 
it an artistic medium all its own; this drove me to capture that personality in a 
contemporary display typeface. 

Taking inspiration from both serif and sans-serif type, the letterforms show high 
contrast to show legibility at large sizes, and humanistic curves and transitions 
to give a more natural visual impression.
