Type study: United Pixelworkers
Jay Fanelli and Nathan Peretic for Typekit:
With its cement-colored pixelbricks and distressed red and blue banners, United Pixelworkers’ aesthetic is an homage to the “Made in the USA” gritty union heritage of Pittsburgh, our hometown. We needed a typeface that fit that visual vocabulary. Enter Hellenic Wide, a 19th-century western font experiencing a surge of popularity.
