Designed by Jakob Fischer, Primitivus is a grunge and hand display font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Pizzadude.dk.
It all started with making of a simple all-caps font. I drew the whole alphabet, numbers all else needed - but something wasn’t quite right…the lettershapes were fine, but quite boring. Then I took a drastic decision: I started all over again ... meaning, I printed the whole thing, messed it up using a wet cloth and wrinkled the paper - then scanned it all again, and imported all the graphics yet again. A lot of work, yes - but personally I think it was worth it! But anyway, that’s the story of how Primitivus was made ... well, almost, but not quite ... but that’s another story!
Use Primitivus for anything that needs that special kind of look were handdrawn letters meets grunge! Play around with the 4 different versions of each letter to make your text look even more random and natural!
