Madromit was designed by Ryoichi Tsunekawa and published by Dharma Type. Madromit contains 4 styles and family package options. The font is currently #40 in Hot New Fonts.
Madromit(ma-do-ro-mi) is a somewhat nostalgic display font.
Do you remember computer advertisements in the 80s and 90s? Yes, it is the most excited period in the history of computer.
We call the design in this period Primitive Digital Design.
Madromit is, so to speak, the revival or reconstruction of the primitive digital type in the period.
The structure and elements of this font are very simple and the key features are geometric shape and simple griddy design with rounded corners, oval bowls, and rightâ€angled joints which we used to see in the primitive period.
In addition to this, Madromit has one more characteristic feature – classic engraving font -. It is called Open Style.
Open style is one of the classic method to decorate and emphasize the font.
Our aim is the synergy by the mixture of primitive digital design and classic engraving method.
This mixture makes new impression we have never seen before.
