Panamericana

Teen Revolution. Thanks: Sami Korhonen

Armani Exchange (A|X) used some of Panamericana’s glyphs in the front of the design of one of their T-shirts.

Myfonts Rising Stars, June 2007:Think pirates, treasure hunts, explorers’ maps, shady contracts, captains’ logs cut short by some intruder or natural disaster. That’s the kind of atmosphere evoked by the ten members of the rich and impressive Panamericana family. The font names are a course in basic Spanish: Blanca, Gris, Negra, Uno, Dos, Tres… Panamerican breathes calligraphy, but also plays around with every kind of grungy distortion that you can think of. Designer Carlos Fabián Camargo Guerrero is from Mérida, Venezuela, and now runs the Andinistas studio in Bogotà, Colombia. Two cities on the Andes mountain range – that’s why the studio is called “Andes people”.

Myfonts Rising Stars, July 2007:Panamericana is a family of rough-and-tumble fonts of calligraphic origin designed by Andinistas from Bogotá, Colombia. Its ten styles offer energetic handwriting in various grades of decay and deconstruction, plus a set of dingbats and flourishes. Having been featured in last month’s Rising Stars, this intriguing set continues to catch the attention of designers in search of an evocative script with darkly romantic overtones. 

Panamericana is a family of calligraphic origin consisting of 10 styles: Blanca, Gris, Negra, Uno, Dos, Tres, Cuatro, Cinco, Seis and Dingbats (Dingbats includes 26 illustrations characters).

The blending of each and every one of these styles allows the designer to work with countless grunge characteristics that inject happiness and originality to any word.

All of the 10 fonts include the complete character set with lower and upper case letters, numbers, accents, diacritics, punctuation and monetary symbols. The fonts included in this family are available in the Open Type format and they are Mac and PC compatible.

Heleodora

Digitalarts Say (16 Page/ Digital Arts October 2008): Scratchy perfection: Fans of Gonzo illustrator Ralph Steadman will find plenty to like in Heleodora, the newest font from Andinistas. Available in three different typefaces, each more slanted than the last, the font has an intense, hand-drawn quality that makes it perfect for adding a little anarchy to your designs. Andinistas is an independent type foundry and graphic design company, founded in Venezuela and now based in Colombia; it specializes in custom and retail fonts. Buy the font from $39.95 (about £20) from MyFonts. www.andinistas.net

Heleodora in “Myfonts: Rising Stars, October 2008″
Myfonts Say: Carlos Fabián Camargo Guerrero of the Andinistas foundry has definitely found a style of his own, and what’s more: through MyFonts he has also found an audience. He specializes in what could be described as “destructive penmanship,” producing one dirty script after another. The recent Heleodora is another variation on the theme to which earlier Andinistas releases such as Alcira and Ninja also danced. It is a family of three based on the same underlying drawing — Heleodora 2 and 3 are slanted and condensed versions of number 1.

Denedo

Just like the M.C. Escher impossible figures and optical illusions, “Denedo” is a font that is impossible to construct in three dimensions because it only exists as a drawing. This font is based on the “0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9” characters of one of the alphabets published by Nedo Mion Ferrario in the “Letromaquia” exhibition that was shown in Caracas, Venezuela in the 70’s.

The reason why I chose to restore and complete this font is that unique and exceptional personality that each word acquires when it is written with this alphabet.

Denedo is a typographic family in three styles: Denedo 1A, 1B and 1C. When mixing them in big sizes you will emphasize the balance and incongruity of its shapes, providing originality and a unique identity to every word. All of the 3 variations include a complete character set with the lower and upper case letters, numbers, accents, diacritic signs, punctuation and monetary signs.

All the fonts included in this family are available in Open Type format and are perfectly compatible with Mac and PC.

I want to express my sincere gratitude to all my friends at Typophile who supported and motivated me during the final stages in the development of this font.
