About Typeland
Typeland is an independent type design studio based in London. We offer retail fonts exclusively through our own website. We also develop custom fonts, and specialise in multi-script design and production.
Typeland offers flexible font licensing, customisation, and bespoke type design for a variety of uses across platforms. For any questions about our retail font library, custom projects, licensing options, or to inquire about a commission, please feel free to write to us at: hello@type.land
Typeland is led by Alessia Mazzarella and Vaibhav Singh. We like to take a no-nonsense view of typeface design. No matter what adjectives or narratives they are embellished with, typefaces are not going to change the world. In the age of endless bluster and unreflective outpourings, our work aims to extend small provocations of quietude, where it can. Our retail library simply offers typefaces that we enjoy crafting and using. No hyperbolic claims, no fluffy descriptions, no contrived process stories — just fonts for what they’re worth.
