About Balcony Font Family


Balcony is a decorative display typeface inspired by the patterns of metal safety grills. Its highly geometric features may be used to identify it as Art Deco. It is a monospaced type family with all characters confined in a square frame. The main idea of Balcony is to create a grill-like pattern when letterforms are placed together. This creates an illusionary experience for the reader. The best way to use this typeface is without leading, as shown in the visuals.


Balcony also comes with two stylistic sets. The first stylistic set contains most characters with more decorative elements and the second one includes Dingbats. These Dingbats are motifs with simple geometric patterns that may be used for any kind of ornamentation.


The diacritics letterforms are geometrically squeezed within the square frame to include the accents. This experimental typeface comes with about 650 characters and four weights (Thin, Light, Regular and Bold). The font family supports Western and Central European languages.

About Shaily Patel

Shaily Patel is an Undergrade Graphic Design student from India who aspires to make a career in Type Design. She has always found a close relationship with letterforms and scripts since childhood. In 2020, Shaily's work in Type Design was recognized by Sharp Type's Malee Scholarship as 'Women of Typographic Excellence,' along with seven WOC Type Designers from around the globe ( https://sharptype.co/news/the-malee-scholarship-2020-typographic-excellence/). Shaily is a native speaker and writer of Gujarati, has knowledge of Devanagari and is determined to learn even more scripts, such as other Indic scripts, for her type design practice. In roughly two years, Shaily has developed typefaces in Latin and Gujarati. She dreams of creating work for the masses and believes one of the best ways is designing type. So if you just bought that font, you made her dream come true! :) Would love to see how you use the font. Do get in touch on Instagram @shailypatel_ or [email protected]
