P22 Civilite is a historic revival. It is a non-connecting upright handwriting script based on 16th-century sources. It has a lineage from Robert Granjon in France and early Dutch type specimens from the Enschede and Sons Foundry. This family includes the 6 basic Dutch versions of Civilite in both “historical” and “modern” styles. Use it for pirate-themed parties, period-specific exhibits, archival editions, fantasy novels, custom stationery, and postmodern branding.
P22 Type Foundry specializes in historical typefaces inspired by art, history, and science. The company was created in 1994 in Buffalo, New York, by co-founders Richard Kegler and Carima El-Behairy. The breathtaking array of fonts — which have appeared in films and on numerous commercial products — offers an impressive cornucopia of styles for companies and designers. The P22 Type Foundry collection focuses on historical letterforms that would never have been available in digital form otherwise.
P22 Type Foundry is a member of The Type Founders collection.
