Solæ Typeface

Solæ is a personal interpretation of the Romain du Roi. Inspired by the Sun King, the name “Solæ” evokes the vastness of the solar system and the cosmos. The design draws inspiration from planets, stars, and comets, capturing the delicacy of the Milky Way, the trails of meteors, and constellations. The result is an alphabet with elegant lines, featuring hundreds of ligatures and subtle contrasts. A Rotalic version complements the Light style, with a 9° rotation that echoes celestial orbits and offers an alternative to traditional italics. Solæ supports 100 languages and spans over 2,100 glyphs, including astrological signs, moon phases, an extensive range of ligatures for uppercase and lowercase letters, and inclusive writing support.
