Chico Font Download

Chico was designed by José Manuel Urós and published by Type-Ø-Tones. Chico contains 2 styles and family package options.  

Chico was by designed by Javier Mariscal and Josema Urós specifically for the final roll of credits in the animated film Chico y Rita.

The goal was to design a typeface with a good readability but that conveyed a strong script character and, in some way, tuned to the style of line used throughout the film.

Using a modular sans-serif as a template, Javier Mariscal reinterpreted the forms freely, while maintaining gridlike proportions.

Chico can be useful for comic-book lettering, editorial work and display applications.
