Starting at the End of the Alphabet

We’re proud to unveil XYZ Type, our new independent type foundry. This marks the debut of Aglet Slab and Export, two original typefaces, joined by our previous release, Cortado.

Free trial versions of every font are available on our site, so we hope you’ll download them and put them to work. We can’t wait to see where they end up.

—Ben Kiel & Jesse Ragan, XYZ Type

To soften the blow, use Aglet Slab

Seven weights in Roman and Italic
Tabular figures, arbitrary fractions
Forward-compatible for the Singularity

If you have to cut corners, use Export

Solid and stencil styles
All capitals
Free of export tariffs

For a carefree lifestyle, use Cortado

One style with 1,100+ glyphs
Smart alternates
Old-style and lining figures, fractions
No bitter aftertaste

We owe a debt of gratitude to everyone who saw us through to our launch. Topos Graphics went above and beyond in developing our brand identity, our website, our voice, and more. Brana Vasilić at GrayBits transformed Topos’s ideas into brilliant code and made the implausible possible. And Eric Jacobsen helped us up after a bump in the road.

Lastly, a warm thank you to all our friends and mentors in the type community who have offered us advice and encouragement over the years.
