ParaType Foundry
Paratype is first and foremost a community of people united by their passion and respect for global font and typographical heritage. A sincere love and dedication enables us to establish a dialog between the Cyrillic and Latin scripts from which emerge new contemporary graphic creations. The font, to us, is a tool which allows us to look into the past, reflect the mood and dynamic of the modern world, and to take a look into the future.
With it, we are forging a new visual reality for our time. Millions of people throughout the world run their eyes over our letter design in seeking the meaning behind what has been written. We see it as our mission to ensure that a perfectly elegant depiction of each character not only doesn’t get in the way of understanding the word’s meaning but also accelerates and simplifies its comprehension.
We don’t simply develop multilingual fonts, we create visual solutions for various areas: navigation, ads, and screens. The Paratype team is a united group of enthusiasts, ready to take on the most unbelievable projects. Looking at them, many might think that the game isn’t worth the candle. But belief in what you are doing can work wonders. Using cutting-edge technology, we are preserving the traditions of text fonts and making typography accessible and intelligible to everyone.
