Moron was originally the sans-serif version of Nylon, but took on a life of its own. Moron became a cute/nasty, old/new drawing of victorian sans-serif letterforms, with a bit of the 1970s ‘sausage fonts’ thrown in. This odd sounding combination makes for a font that has a fresh, original feel and a unique aesthetic.

The inspiration of the font was Victorian Tuscan and Grotesque type found in churches and cemeteries in Glasgow. These typefaces were drawn just before the age of Modernism so they seemed to contain an element of the ‘Industrial Age’ but still hinted at craft and the decorative arts. The Victorians’ handling of ornament in relation to appropriate design in an age of mass production has always fascinated me.
