Thumbnail for Type Tuesday: Laura Meseguer’s Sisters

Laura Mesegeur’s latest typeface celebrates the creative women of the world.

The family of four dubbed Sisters began as a custom lettering project for an art exhibition identity, and grew from there.

Mesegeur started with the stencil-based Sisters One

… Added contrast to create Sisters Two

… Equalized the weights of Sisters Two to create Sisters Three

… And threw some deco flair into Sisters Two to create Sisters Four.

As Type-Ø-Tones, which Meseguer co-founded, writes, the styles “share foundational principles of construction yet complement each other—as sisters do—by celebrating their differences.”
