Map Roman is an elegant set of titling capitals based on the lettering of MacDonald “Max” Gill, whose work included a variety of beautifully handlettered maps of London, the United Kingdom, and the world. After stumbling upon his work in a cartography museum, DJR tried his hand at a typographical interpretation of his style that attempts to capture the liveliness and authority of his letterforms. Map Roman distinguishes itself in its flexibility: at its widest, it is broad and luxuriant, while its narrower widths retain their charm even as they cram into the tightest of spaces.
