Strumpf was created by Portuguese designer Mario Feliciano. Late in 1994, Feliciano began work on a typeface that would capture the look and feel of his favorite comic strip. He believed this design should follow alphabetic tradition as little as possible, while still being readable. True to its comic-strip inspiration, Strumpf is highly animated; every letter has its own bouncy personality. Consistency is provided by the rounded shapes and outlines rather than a formal letterform structure. The two variations, Open and Contour, have different outline treatments, but the letters are encouraged to touch in both, enhancing their interplay and jocular disposition. Use fun-loving Strumpf for setting single light-hearted words or phrases, rather than lengthy headlines or text.
The Adobe Originals program started in 1989 as an in-house type foundry at Adobe, brought together to create original typefaces of exemplary design quality, technical fidelity, and aesthetic longevity.
Today the Type team’s mission is to make sophisticated and even experimental typefaces that explore the possibilities of design and technology. Typefaces released as Adobe Originals are the result of years of work and study, regarded as industry standards for the ambition and quality of their development.
