A Foundry by Femme Type
Born with the purpose of partnering with type designers from backgrounds under-represented within the industry, ALT.tf is a UK-based type foundry accompanied by an international array of contemporary creative power.
Working together we craft unique, forward-thinking typefaces fit for purpose; optimised for both digital and printed spaces. Injecting each letter-form with as much brazen passion as the last, we are established to present alternative typefaces from voices under-represented in the type design scene.

LATEST RELEASE
ALT MariaClara
Introducing our very first font release in collaboration with Philipina-type designer Alli Cunanan.
ALT MariaClara is dedicated to the strong, confident, brave Filipina women who are breaking away from stereotypes and owning their identities. Named after Maria Clara, a fictional Filipina character who became a colonial figure—an embodiment of submissive, conservative demureness, a myth that allowed Spanish colonizers to subjugate Filipina women.
ALT MariaClara flips the narrative.
