Montserrat 灵感来之传统街区的旧海报和标志

Montserrat 灵感来之传统街区的旧海报和标志第1张

Julieta Ulanovsky于2010年在布宜诺斯艾利斯大学FADU攻读字体设计研究生时开始了这个项目。2011年，她将其作为Kickstarter项目推出，以完成第一次公开发布，并通过谷歌字体与世界分享。在她的Kickstarter中，她这样描述：

布宜诺斯艾利斯蒙塞拉特传统街区的旧海报和标志激发了我设计一种字体的灵感，这种字体拯救了20世纪上半叶城市排版的美丽。目标是拯救蒙特塞拉特的东西，并根据自由、自由和开源的许可证，即SIL开放字体许可证，将其释放。

随着城市的发展改变了这个地方，它将永远不会回到原来的形式，永远失去那些特别和独特的设计。为了绘制字母，我依赖于城市空间中的字母示例。每个选定的例子在长度、宽度和高度比例上都有自己的变体，每个变体都加入了蒙特塞拉特家族。旧的排版和檐篷在被替换时是无法修复的。

还有其他的复兴，但它们并没有与原作接近。启发这个项目的信件有工作、奉献、关怀、色彩、对比、光线和生活、白天和夜晚！正是这些类型让这座城市看起来如此美丽。

从那时起，它就由Julieta与几位设计师合作开发。2015年，Julieta与Ale Paul、Carolina Giovagnoli、Andrés Torresi、Juan Pablo del Peral和Sol Matas合作开发了一整套重量和斜体字。2017年，Jacques Le Bailly重新设计了整个拉丁语设计，与此同时，Juan Pablo del Peral和Sol Matas在Maria Doreuli和Alexei Vanyashin的审查和建议下开发了最初的西里尔文扩展。Lasse Fister、Kalapi-GajjarBordawekar和Marc Foley进行了技术审查。特别感谢Thomas Linard、Valeria Dulitzky、Belén Quirós和Germán Rozo。

Julieta Ulanovsky began this project in 2010 while a post-graduate student of typeface design at the FADU, University of Buenos Aires. She launched it as a Kickstarter project in 2011, in order to complete the first public release and share it with the world through Google Fonts. In her Kickstarter, she described it like this:

The old posters and signs in the traditional neighborhood of Buenos Aires called Montserrat inspired me to design a typeface that rescues the beauty of urban typography from the first half of the twentieth century. The goal is to rescue what is in Montserrat and set it free, under a free, libre and open source license, the SIL Open Font License.

As urban development changes this place, it will never return to its original form and loses forever the designs that are so special and unique. To draw the letters, I rely on examples of lettering in the urban space. Each selected example produces its own variants in length, width and height proportions, each adding to the Montserrat family. The old typographies and canopies are irretrievable when they are replaced.

There are other revivals, but those do not stay close to the originals. The letters that inspired this project have work, dedication, care, color, contrast, light and life, day and night! These are the types that make the city look so beautiful.

Since then it has been developed by Julieta in collaboration with several designers. In 2015, a full set of weights and italics were developed by Julieta in collaboration with Ale Paul, Carolina Giovagnoli, Andrés Torresi, Juan Pablo del Peral and Sol Matas. In 2017, Jacques Le Bailly reworked the entire Latin design, and in parallel Juan Pablo del Peral and Sol Matas developed the initial Cyrillic extension with review and advise from Maria Doreuli and Alexei Vanyashin. Technical reviews were made by Lasse Fister, Kalapi GajjarBordawekar and Marc Foley. Special thanks also to Thomas Linard, Valeria Dulitzky, Belén Quirós, and Germán Rozo.
