Deconstructive variation of â€Clarendon“
DéFormé was born out of the distortion of the time-honored â€Clarendon“ letterforms, in which the stems and thin strokes have been reversed. Thus, a typeface was created which will remind some readers of a Western typeface, and others of the ordinary typeface of a typewriter.
Actually, it is still a robust Clarendon, which has survived its disfigurement quite well. DéFormé, like its â€mother“, is easily legible, in spite of the inherent emphasis which one is not used to seeing.
