From intern exercise to 16-style serif family
Audela is a serif family by Fontfabric that began as an intern exercise by Léa Bruneau in 2018 and was later developed into a polished release under the mentorship of Type Director Plamen Motev. The name derives from the French au-delà, meaning 'beyond,' signaling an intent to push past conventional serif conventions. The design combines wedge-shaped serifs with expressive letterforms, covering 16 styles plus variable Roman and italic axes, with extended Latin and Cyrillic support.
