Afronaut Font Download
Designer: Mateusz Machalski
Publisher: Borutta Group
Afronaut was designed by Mateusz Machalski and published by Borutta Group.
Afronaut contains 1 style. The font is currently #40 in Hot New Fonts.
Afronaut was inspired by vernacular Latin & Arabic typography in in St. Louis (on Senegal-Mauretania Border, Africa). Geometric forms working well and contrasting with smooth, round elements. After reading '
Afronautics – from Zambia to the Moon' by Bartek Sabela (about Zambian conquest of space) a breif was set to create typeface that looks like mix between: vernacular Arabic script, futuristic typography and some special lettering that I found in Africa during my travels to Guinée, Bissau, Gambia, Senegal, Mauritania and West Sahara.
Afronaut is one weight but many letters have 3 different forms.
Afronaut can work as regular version of my Yalla Typeface.
