TypoApish Schriftart

TypoApish by Manfred Klein is a free animal dingbat font made from stark silhouettes of apes and monkeys rather than conventional letterforms. Long limbs and uneven contours give each figure a lively outline.

A zoo poster is an especially convincing use, since the figures can punctuate event details, form a themed border, or stand in for familiar pictograms. Children's publishing, wildlife merchandise, and educational displays also suit the recognizable bodies, broad gestures, and shifts between compact and sprawling poses. In conservation campaigns, a single ape can become an illustrated emblem, mascot, or scene-setting device instead of acting as neutral lettering.
