Typeface Design for the Amarelle Suite
A Zapf-inspired serif reimagined as part of a three-way typographic suite
Amarelle Serif is one member of the three-part Amarelle suite, alongside Amarelle Sans and Amarelle Chancery. It draws inspiration from Hermann Zapf's 1948 serif design and has been reimagined with shared formal cues across all three members to maintain stylistic cohesion. Designed by Deiverson Ribeiro and Ben Jones at Dalton Maag, the family was developed between 2024 and 2026 and supports over 780 Latin-script languages.
