Alex Trochut

If you’re someone who is excited about type, the name Alex Trochut should be a name often on the tip of your tongue. But if you haven’t seen that name before today: Alex is an amazing young letterer out of Barcelona. With an extensive heritage in the type world (his grandfather was a printmaker and typographic designer), Alex shows his talent through endless experimentations that push the limits of type to the extreme. A couple of months ago Alex published his first book, More is More, which looks to be a great compilation of his work, so be sure to check that out if you what to experience more of this lettering master.

Outstanding - high quality work all the way through, and love the Vampire Weekend poster design!

I’ve been a huge fan of Alex Trochut’s work for several years. He really pushes the craft to a high level. His work is just exquisite—full of energy and swagger. Thanks for this post! I’m going to purchase his book. No doubt it’ll be great.

Simply brilliant typography, Thanks for the inspiration!

These are some incredible examples of inventive and creative typography. There is an amazing complexity to some of Alex Trouchet’s work and yet a great deal of control can be seen. A lot of inspiration can be drawn from studying these examples as they really push the boundaries of what can be achieved with illustrative typography.

wonderful typography..
