HELMINTHOÏDES

Helminthoïdes is a typeface I started designing. It was directly inspired by a Helminthoïde fossil. This fossil is characterized by serpentine tracks, but the animal responsible for these tracks is not known, despite their great abundance in the Hautes-Alpes. The Helminthoïdes typeface was designed to be used primarily as a titling typeface, rather than as a working text. Through its curves, I wanted to represent the animal's movement, with a massive yet elegant feel, thanks to its fatness and sinuous curves.
