Salish was designed by Aaron Bell and published by Saja TypeWorks. Salish contains 5 styles and family package options.
Salish is a sans-serif typeface inspired by the art of the Salishan tribes in the Northwest Americas. It draws heavily on the concept of the ‘ovoid’, a wide ovular shape that is flat on the bottom and top heavy, that is central to the art style known as ‘Formline’.
