Chapeau Font Family

Chapeau is loosely inspired by one of Johnny Cash’s iconic letters written on an old IBM typewriter. The original typeface called “Doric” was one of the rare proportionally aligned typewriter faces supplied by IBM in the late 60s. Based on simple geometric shapes, Chapeau is a low contrast sans-serif with rounded endings. The letterforms have been carefully aligned to avoid exceeding width and to achieve an efficient, up-to-date appearance.
