Font: SFT Royalbrick. Use case: Book typography & publication design.
About the Project: This illustrated handbook explores the heritage of Russian architectural ceramics, tracing their design, production and cultural role. SFT Royalbrick was created for this publication, drawing from nineteenth-century brick-makers’ marks uncovered in St. Petersburg and translated into a full display typeface that combines strong contrast, distinctive concave stems and a rhythmic texture. In the final layout, it serves large headlines and section identifiers, forming a visually rich backdrop to photography and archival material.
Why SFT Royalbrick? Designing for a topic steeped in craft and material history, SFT Royalbrick brings structural authority while remaining visually expressive. Its architectural rhythm and ornamental details reflect the tactile nature of ceramic tiles, making it suited to a publication that blends heritage aesthetics with typographic experimentation.
