Alosta
What’s the old Matthew McConaughey car commercial adage? Ah, ‘sometimes we have to go backwards to go forwards.’ It sounds like bullshit for a car commercial but for type it totally makes sense!
Introducing the 7th font from Damn Type Co. - Alosta. It’s named after the street I lived on as I grew up. To me, Alosta means getting lost on back roads with no service, using only hand-painted signs to get where you’re going. It means, it doesn’t matter where you are because HERE you are. It’s stumbling on a hidden place where you meant not to. Alosta is a type revival of sign-painted letters from an Atkinson lettering book from the 1915s. I balanced the irregularities but left slight imperfections to keep it human and true to its roots. Corporate san serif uniformity bores me, but I LOVE a good san serif that packs a little kick.
Your purchase is good for a single-user desktop license for both personal and commercial use across print and digital projects.
