Bricolage Grotesque is not just another display font—it’s a thoughtful blend of classic structure and modern playfulness. This ink trap font carries the unmistakable charm of a neo-grotesque sans serif, combining precision with subtle, quirky details that make it feel both calm and lively.

What sets Bricolage Grotesque apart is its carefully crafted ink traps—those deliberate cuts and curves that not only add character but also improve legibility at smaller sizes. The result? A typeface that feels sturdy and serious when you need it to, but playful and approachable when the design calls for a lighter touch.

The font includes:

  • Latin Uppercase and Lowercase

  • Numbers and Punctuation

  • Common Latin and Currency Symbols

  • Support for 484 Languages

Its extensive multilingual support makes it a powerful choice for global projects. Whether you’re building branding for a modern start-up, crafting unique social media graphics, or designing posters with bold headlines, Bricolage Grotesque adapts beautifully.

Perfect Uses:

  • Posters/Flyers: The sharp ink traps make it perfect for eye-catching display work.

  • Branding Projects: Ideal for modern, clean logos with a bit of personality.

  • Editorial Design: Great for magazine covers, pull quotes, and article headlines.

  • Web Design: Works well in headers or bold CTA buttons.

  • Merchandise: Looks stunning on apparel, tote bags, and other brand extensions.

  • Signage and Wayfinding: Thanks to its excellent legibility, even visible at a distance.

The calm and playful balance of Bricolage Grotesque means you can pair it with minimal designs or layer it into more complex layouts for contrast. Its structure is solid enough for corporate identities but soft enough for creative industries, lifestyle brands, and cultural projects.

The font’s neo-grotesque base gives it a clean, modern feel, but the ink traps add just enough edge to keep it from looking sterile. It’s versatile, flexible, and above all, unique.

Even better? It’s free for personal and commercial use ( SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE Version 1.1 ), giving you the freedom to use it across a wide range of creative applications without worrying about licenses.
