As we go through life, it seems the days are long but the years are short. Each year we set big goals based on what we’d like to contribute to society and the world of fonts over the next decade, and to close out the year we like to look back and celebrate those achievements.

For a limited time, when you purchase any Catalpa fonts — whether a single weight or the entire family — we will send you one of our new wood letterpress posters for free.

Catalpa was inspired by wood type, clever diacritics, and peculiarities in large headline text. It seems only right for it to be turned into true wood type and used in poster creation by Rafael Neder, Rafael Dietzsch, and Cláudio Rocha.

Our “Building ligatures” book and ebook celebrates 15 years as an independent font foundry and the relationships we’ve made along the way.
