P22 Sting is a distinctive hand-lettered hybrid merging Blackletter lowercase characters with Roman capitals. This roughly textured calligraphic style by Michael Clark was crafted over several years using pen and ink and is now digitized for designers and typographers. It’s especially well-suited to creating a vintage look for historical titling, gothic music, apparel design, commemorative documents, themed restaurant signage, food packaging, and other decorative or themed 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.
