THE DAYS WERE GOLDEN

Features

and the good Frey dropped peace and plenty everywhere, and men went in and out and feared no wrong. King Volsung had a dwelling in the midst of fertile fields and fruitful gardens.

Features

Fairer than any dream was that dwelling. The roof was thatched with gold, and red turrets and towers rose above. The great feast-hall was long and high, and its walls were hung with sun-bright shields; and the door-nails were of silver.

Features

In the middle of the hall stood the pride of the Volsungs,—a tree whose blossoms filled the air with fragrance, and whose green branches, thrusting themselves through the ceiling, covered the roof with fair foliage. It was Odin’s tree, and King Volsung had planted it there with his own hands.

Information

Zoo Display is a strong and high contrast display typeface. The inspiration for Zoo comes from the lettering raised on the vinyl sleeves of a french jazz music band called « Zoo ». The two letters « Z » & « O » established the construction constraints of the design of the all character set. The asymmetrical distribution of the shapes makes it a dancing jazzy typeface family, layouts live through this concept. Zoo combines sharpness and roundness, delicateness and strength, with a touch of jazz.
