The Anatomy of a Typeface
By FontSide · June 2026
Every typeface is a system of decisions — about stroke contrast, x-height, spacing, and rhythm. The best ones feel invisible: you stop seeing the letters and start hearing the voice behind them. That transparency is the hardest thing to design.
A high x-height opens up the counters and makes small text breathe. Tight tracking pulls a headline together; loose tracking gives a caption room to exhale. None of these choices are accidents — they are arguments about how reading should feel.

/* Please select at least one weight and style */ Background & Story
Coiny is a typeface designed originally for the Latin and Tamil scripts in parallel. Naturally bold, and born on street to shine on screen. It has a structure based on simple geometrical shapes, and is inspired by the vernacular designs seen around every big city. The forms are similar to those found with writing made with a rounded brush point. It is a lot of fun for titles and headlines.
The Coiny project is led by Marcelo Magalhães, a type designer based in São Paulo, Brasil. To contribute, see github.com/marcelommp/Coiny
