Drool

Drool is a sinister display typeface inspired by H.R. Giger’s Xenomorph alien from Ridley Scott’s 1979 film, Alien. The font began with a single serif and evolved into a more complex, double serif version. We used 3D renderings to then depict this transformation in three phases. We imagined an early single weight stage, then an incubation phase where the second weight could be seen growing inside the first. We finally developed a fully grown stage that would ultimately burst out of the first.
