Elle regarda la maison de Coral depuis l’autre côté de la rue, les balcons ornés d’une boule dorée à chaque coin, les voilages si blancs. Elle n’avait pas franchi le portail qu’elle avait déjà envie de repartir. Cette décision lui avait beaucoup coûté, mais elle ne trouvait plus la tranquillité en pensant à cet après-midi où son frère était rentré à la maison tellement malade. Les appliques en forme de fleur contre les murs du vestibule, le moelleux tapis rouge qui couvrait l’escalier, la mettaient mal à l’aise. Elle avait la sensation que ce qu’elle allait demander était absurde.

Lo sguardo gli si era fatto tenero, e Aloma, ancora appoggiata alla parete, cominciava ad allarmarsi. Ma quel ragazzo aveva una faccia da brava persona.

La lumière du vestibule était si vive après le demi-jour de l’escalier qu’elle lui fit mal aux yeux.

Es war kein Dorf, es war ein Wald. Die Mädchen waren von zu Hause fortgegangen, um die Waldrebe zu pflücken, manche die Mohnblume, manche die violette Distel, andere die Heckenrose... und hatten nicht herausfinden können aus dem Wald, den sie hatten durchqueren müssen, und der Wald hatte sie behalten. Alle gingen gleich gekleidet: ein rotes Röckchen, ein Mieder mit blauen und gelben Blümchen auf marine blauem Grund.

About this typeface

Aloma is a type family intended for both text and display purposes. It is inspired on “Aloma” novel written by catalan writer Mercè Rodoreda, and published in Barcelona in 1938. The first ideas for the design were based on Deco magazine headlines and lettering. Also on the ideas behind Catalan Noucentisme movement.
Aloma has a Neoclassical flavour with classical Roman proportions, although some sort of inconsistency is applied in some letters.
It is intended for editorial design (magazines, catalogs), mainly for titling.
The shape of the typefaces, as well as their contrasting outlines, make them especially beautiful for headlines and short introductory texts.
