Description

Laura Meseguer developed Rumba during her time at the KABK’s Type and Media program in The Hague in the early aughts. The family contains three fonts based on the same model, but with varying contrast, construction, and degrees of expressiveness. It comes with several alternate characters, special ligatures, and all of the glyphs required for languages based on the Latin alphabet. This makes Rumba a truly multilingual typeface family, suitable for myriad uses. The family consists of Rumba Small for short texts, Rumba Large for headlines, and Rumba Extra, which imparts a hand-lettered touch; Type-Ø-Tones 2006–2017

Type-Ø-Tones

Type-Ø-Tones is a typographic design company founded in 1990 by Joan Barjau, Enric Jardí, Laura Meseguer and José Manuel Urós. Although we mainly publish our own designs, we collaborate with many other typographers.

In our friend Jan Middendorp words: “They’re a loosely-knit collective of independent individuals, each with their own activities as graphic designers, writers and teachers. They have been making and publishing fonts since the early days of desktop type design and pioneered digital techniques that are now commonplace. Their fonts represent an approach that is, perhaps, typically Catalan: simultaneously adventurous and serious, witty and well-conceived.”
