| info | About forgia Forgia is a result of my fascination with the beauty I find in utilitarian industrial objects like the riveted stanchions in New York subway stations, decorative ironwork in Grand Central terminal and the eloquent construction details of the urban infrastructure of the 19th and early 20th century. It began its life as die-raised sign typography for a magazine cover assignment, developed further for a book cover about mid-20th century American manufacturing and evolved into a complete font. About the designer Daniel Pelavin's work is best recognized for its precisely drafted shapes, unique color palette and original typography. His mastery at combining stylistic elements from different historical periods while maintaining an unwavering focus on clarity has produced a body work that is timeless and enduring. He has received accolades for illustration and typographic design and a singular ability to seamlessly combine the two. From his earliest work, which was produced using templates, french curves and drafting tools, to a present day virtuosity in digital media, Pelavin has used a restrained and simplified vocabulary of geometric forms. www.pelavin.com |
