Limitations breed character.⁠
⁠
Typewriters operate within a strict set of rules. Every letter occupies the same amount of space, and every character arrives through the same mechanical process. It's a rigid system, almost bureaucratic in its precision.⁠
⁠
Constraints however, don’t necessarily make work less expressive. Sometimes they make you more inventive. Rather than attempting to remove the restrictions of the machine, ALT Ricalco, designed by Tina Božan led by ALT’s Creative Director Giulia Boggio, embraces them. ⁠
⁠
Its kerning is kept deliberately minimal, allowing the spatial, mechanical limitations associated with the typewriter to become an integral part of the typeface's visual character.⁠

“The charm of typography lies precisely within those limitations.”
