MOTHERHOOD

Revolutionized

The Metz Cathedral is nicknamed la Lanterne du Bon Dieu (“the Good Lord’s lantern”), as it displays the largest expanse of stained glass in the world, totalling 6,496 m2.

Saint Stephen

IN THE HISTORY OF EUROPE, THE MIDDLE AGES OR MEDIEVAL PERIOD LASTED APPROXIMATELY FROM THE 5TH TO THE LATE 15TH CENTURIES.

Gothic Arquitecture

Gargoyle, from the French gargouille, which in English means “throat” or the “gullet”; cf. Latin gurgulio, gula, gargula, and similar words derived from the root gar, “to swallow”, representing the gurgling sound of water (e.g., Portuguese and Spanish garganta, gárgola).

INSCRIPTIONS

Rooted in gothic tradition, Profane evokes a modern interpretation of 14th-century inscriptions found in the Metz Cathedral (France). Blending angularity and softness, this display typeface preserves the medieval spirit with gargoyle-like terminals and diamond-shaped counterforms while adding a melted quality with rounded serifs and gooey ligatures. A striking graphic tension that grants distinctive and expressive texture to your scriptural needs.
