Grilli Type

Grilli Type is a Swiss type foundry with a small but well-crafted collection of faces. It’s not a massive library, but everything they offer has a clear point of view. Whether you’re looking for something clean and versatile like GT America or want a bit more character with something like GT Alpina, the type is consistently thoughtful and well-built.

They offer free trial fonts, which makes testing super easy. You can drop them into a pitch deck, a prototype, or a layout without guessing how the weights or proportions will feel in context. It’s a detail that shows they care about how designers actually work. Licensing is straightforward too, which helps if you’re managing multiple clients or scaling across digital and print.

Beyond the retail fonts, Grilli Type also does custom work. If you need a bespoke typeface or want to evolve an existing style into something ownable, they’ll collaborate to build something that feels like it belongs to your brand. It’s not a big, corporate foundry trying to be everything to everyone. It’s a focused, design-first shop with high standards and a sharp eye for detail. That’s what makes it worth coming back to.
