Metropolian Font

Metropolian, a captivating revival of the 1897 Metropolis typeface by Pilaster Davy, emanates a timeless, retro-inspired elegance. With its distinct display and text weights, this font exudes a striking balance between refined sophistication and vintage charm. The sharp, angular forms and graceful flourishes create a mesmerizing interplay of light and shadow, evoking a sense of nostalgia and sophistication.

Metropolian's versatility shines through its dual-weight design, making it a compelling choice for a wide range of applications. From eye-catching headlines and impactful branding to elegant body copy, this font seamlessly adapts to various design needs, allowing creators to craft memorable typographic experiences that captivate the audience.

Metropolian is served free for personal use and as is, but I would encourage anyone downloading and using it to consider a modest donation to the buy the author a beer fund using the donate button on the right of this page. For use in commercial projects, a donation should be considered mandatory and not making one will induce seriously bad Karma.

Hope you enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed bringing it back to life.
(Note: Im still new to font making, so comments and suggestions for improvements are most welcome and will be heeded. ;-) .
