St. Martin

An experimental sans-serif that highlights a typographic artifact found in the works of 19th-century Parisian printer Jean-Alexis Rouchon. A peculiar corner shape appears wherever a shoulder, bowl, or arm meets the stem of a letter — this feature, found across roughly 36 of 110 analyzed Rouchon posters, informs the overall look. Based on a modification of Mirat-Masson's Amiamie (2022), itself derived from Sora Sagano's Aileron (2014). Licensed under SIL Open Font License.
