A queer sans and serif typographic pair. An experiment in the ability of typographic forms to transcend gender specific traits and pre-established notions of femininity/masculinity in form (thoughts that came to mind after watching the amazing film Les Garçons Sauvages by Bertrand Mandico, a brilliantly narrated and visualised gender-fluid fantasy – and where the typeface borrowed its name from). Works as one would expect it to work (in an excellently queer way, that is) in both text and display applications. The reversed contrast on the Greek characters of Sauvage Antique aims at keeping the Greek script in sync with historic typographic paradigms (the undeniably prevalent legacy of «Απλά») and, at the same time, augments the tension between the Latin and Greek script in a multi-script environment while preserving a consistency between the two in terms of forms fluidity, spacing, typographic rhythm, proportions and overall queerness.
