Spotify introducerar ett nytt typsnitt – Spotify Mix

Rasmus Wängelin på Spotify Brand Design:
”To design this typeface, we broke free from traditional typographic constraints and merged elements from a variety of font styles. This approach mirrors the dynamic and evolving nature of audio culture over the years.

The result is a sans-serif typeface that blends features from both classic and contemporary styles, creating a distinctive and unique look. We subtly incorporated the shapes of sound waves to evoke a rhythmic feel. The combination of sharp angles and smooth curves gives the typeface a distinctive character that feels quintessentially Spotify.”

Typsnittet är framtaget av Berlinbaserade Dinamo Typefaces.
