Lalibela, a synthesis of Bodoni and Ge'ez from Ethiopia
The motivation for designing the Lalibela family (which is based on Bodoni) was to pay homage to Ge'ez. The script has been around for about 3000 years, but I took artistic license to deviate from the original model and add personal touches. I chose the Bodoni family as a historical model because of it’s display value and not its text size use because the extreme contrast made it difficult to read at small sizes.
