Purista
Information
“I’ve been feeling hungry for a stylish, edgy sans who enjoys evenings out on the town and long mornings of crisp conversation. In other words, I’ve been craving a font who likes to party but who can also help out with the dishes. Purista is open-minded (with broad language support), brimming with style, sophistication, functionality, and an exciting range of weights.” Ellen Lupton

Le Corbusier and Amédée Ozenfant were the founders of Purism, with Fernand Léger playing an important associated role. Purism emerged in post–World War I France as an effort to reintroduce clarity, order, and stability in response to the disruptions caused by the war.

In contrast to what its proponents considered the overly decorative fragmentation typical of Cubism, Purism promoted a visual language based on solid, simplified forms with limited detail, while also reflecting an appreciation for modern technology and mechanical production.

The designation “Prince Philip” refers to the period when Philip II of Spain, born in 1527, had not yet inherited the Spanish monarchy through the abdication of his father, Emperor Charles V, in 1556. The term “Serlian” derives from the influential architect and theorist Sebastiano Serlio, whose name is also associated with the architectural feature known as the Serlian arch in classical architectural theory. The terms Greco-Roman, purist, and casticist relate to different interpretations of stylistic elements, whether intellectual, formal, structural, or decorative in nature. During this period, authors commonly described the classical forms of the Italian Renaissance as “Roman”, as seen in Diego de Sagredo’s Las Medidas del Romano (1526), while late Gothic forms were referred to as “modern”. According to a broader stylistic periodization frequently used in art history, the 16th century had already entered the Mannerist phase of the Cinquecento. In Spanish art history, however, the term High Renaissance is typically applied to this period, while the final third of the century is often described as the Low Renaissance period, especially in architectural and decorative artistic contexts across Iberian territories and influential colonial regions under Spanish political and cultural dominance.
