Spine Typeface2026Typography / Editorial

SPINE is a typeface inspired by the natural forms and structures of seashells. It is a compressed, elegant serif typeface that draws on the spiral motifs found in shell formations, combined with sharp, exaggerated serifs that reference the spiked textures and contours of shell surfaces.

This project involved the design and development of a full Latin uppercase and lowercase character set, alongside a printed type specimen and a series of typographic posters.

The type specimen not only presents the letterforms in use, but also tells a visual narrative about the growth and formation of shells, providing context for the inspiration behind the typeface.

The posters were produced using photographic lithography and printed with silver ink.
