  • MFA DAGI


    This is MFA Dagi, a Didone inspired fat custom font which was commissioned for a catalog of an exhibition at The Museum of Fine Arts (Budapest, Hungary).

    Later in the making the need for a special tailored version arose as for the technique to cut the titles used on the wall the hairlines of the original version were unsuitable. It might have called a reversed optical grade as the bigger the titles got the more robust the letterforms became.
