Grilli Type – GT Maru

GT Maru is an ode to rounded English characters found on signage across Japan. The typeface is the result of this design exploration into roundness — or maru — in the Latin alphabet. It combines the warmth and flow of sign painting with the mechanical quality of engraved letters.

• Designed by Thierry Blancpain with production work by Huw Williams (Mega). Emoji designed by Grilli Type, with additional typeface production work by Anya Danilova.
• Released in 2021
• Available in 25 styles
