I think I'm in love! This font is everything I love about typography. It's bold, sexy-chic and masterfully crafted!
It was was originally commissioned for the December 2008 “memorial” issue of New York Times magazine. Canada Type’s Patrick Griffin drew a luxurious calligraphic poster font loosely based on ideas found in the foundry’s Jezebel and Treasury typefaces. A great success with the editors and designers, Memoriam ended up being used all over the magazine instead of just the cover. Memoriam contains a lot of alternates, which are distributed across three separate fonts for the PostScript and TrueType formats. Memoriam Pro, the OpenType version, combines all three fonts plus some extras, in one OT-programmed file.
