TYPOGRAPHY PRIMARY

To accompany the bold and geometric nature of the 501c3 logotype, Flama was chosen as the primary typeface. With it’s own bold and almost graphic characteristics the typeface pairs up well with the brand.

About FLAMA Mário Feliciano’s Flama is an unornamented sans serif initially designed for signage which mixes aspects of European and American sans serifs. Flama was initally released with 5 weights in roman and italic, and is now 45 weights across 4 widths, including Thin weights which were commissioned by Black Book magazine. With its ‘neutral’ flavour, Flama proves to be highly efficient for signage, corporate as well as for editorial design. To purchase please visithttp://vllg.com/Feliciano/Flama
