Transforma is a type family from Fontfabric built around three sub-families—Sans, Script, and Mix—where the Mix subfamily merges sans-serif structure with handwritten script forms. The Sans spans nine weights up to ExtraBlack, while Script and Mix each cover five weights. The family totals 22 styles including three variable fonts, with Extended Latin and Cyrillic character support. Released 21 March 2024.

- Type direction was led by Viktoria Usmanova; type design was shared between Usmanova and Ani Dimitrova; the family is credited to the creative vision of studio founder Svetoslav Simov.
