Anvers Display

Anvers Display is a high-contrast typeface inspired by the ancient Greek writing system boustrophedon, in which lines of text alternate direction, causing characters to flip and mirror themselves. Playing with orientation and perception, Anvers Display explores the relationship between form, direction and readability through four distinct styles: Regular, in its standard orientation; Bold, facing the opposite direction; Extended, facing the opposite direction and upside down; and Wide, turned upside down.

Named after Anvers, the French name for the Belgian city of Antwerp, the typeface draws on its resemblance to the French expression "à l'envers" (upside down), a playful reference to its ever-changing orientation. With its striking contrasts and unconventional character transformations, Anvers Display is designed to bring a distinctive visual identity to logotypes, branding and bold editorial titles.
