Be kind — so they said. As we are but shooting stars in the wind. A breath of life, a whisper in the mist. O for so long have I wanted for this.

There will be text & There will be words. But there won't be any sound. Only the ones you wish for: those you hear in your heart. Those you feel in your soul.

The rain dries. The tree grows. Deep roots — in the marsh. I hide in plain sight the secret knowledge to our heart. For you to be a witness to me up until the end.

Long & Dark days are ahead. Fear not. We are together, hands in hands, until the end of the world. The walls may crack and the roofs may tear away. We are here to stay.

Information

The Dean family is a vibrant tribute to the musical and cinematic culture of mid-20th century America. These typefaces, rooted in the legacy of wood types and period posters, reflect an era of intense creativity when design served as the voice of a culture in full swing.
With its two subfamilies, Slab and Gothic, and a total of 200 styles, Dean is far more than just a typeface, it’s a creative tool that transcends time and usage, paying homage to the energy and freedom of a pivotal moment in American cultural history.

With its sharp, precise forms, Dean Gothic retains historical subtleties while embodying a timeless and understated modernity. It continues the typographic tradition of combining functionality with strong aesthetics, echoing the rebellious and free-spirited soul of the cultural events of that time.
For a complementary design with a strong visual impact, explore Dean Slab, which encapsulates the robustness and authenticity of American wood types.
