Aubusson Font Family was designed by Franck Jalleau and published by Black Foundry. Aubusson contains 7 styles and family package options. Aubusson: a typeface blooming from the loom.Born from the brilliant imagination of Franck Jalleau and the meticulous craftsmanship of Black Foundry’s designers. The original designer’s vision for Aubusson was inspired by the iconic tapestries of the “Cité internationale de la tapisserie d’Aubusson” in France. He wanted to capture the essence of the grid-like patterns formed by the interwoven threads while infusing a sense of warmth and organic calligraphy-inspired shapes to reflect the artistery of the tapestries.The journey of Aubusson began with a deep exploration of the traditional tapestry art, where Franck Jalleau immersed himself in the delicate intricacies of its patterns and textures. This profound understanding allowed him to translate the essence of those exquisite threads into a monospaced typeface design. The challenge was to maintain the precision of monospacing while imbuing the characters with a humanistic touch, creating a truly unique and engaging experience.Black Foundry’s designers masterfully expanded and refined the initial concept of Aubusson, developing a versatile multi-purpose typeface that spans from Light to Black on both Roman and Italic styles. The Black weight is meant for eyecatching headlines, exclusively available in Roman, and is not part of the variable font. This extended design space empowers users to convey a wide range of emotions and messages through their typographic expressions.Aubusson has been thoughtfully equipped with a generous glyph-set, catering to the needs of diverse languages using the Latin alphabet. Additionally, the typeface includes dingbats ornaments that add an extra layer of sophistication and beauty to any design. From display headlines to small paragraphs, Aubusson shines gracefully in various contexts, making it a versatile choice for designers seeking both elegance and functionality.With Aubusson, we invite you to embrace the rich tapestry of human expression, where history and innovation intertwine to create a typeface that will stand the test of time. We are humbled and excited to present this masterpiece to the world, and we genuinely believe that Aubusson will not only capture the attention of readers but also become an invaluable tool for designers seeking to elevate their creations. We hope you embark on this creative journey with us and explore the wonders that Aubusson has to offer.
