The 1919 Workers Collective is an activist group with the goal of “developing workers’ solidarity and building a workers’ movement in Winnipeg, MB”.

In 2023, the 1919 Workers Collective commissioned me to expand their logo into a custom font. Demur is the resulting bespoke typeface, which was released to the public free of charge in August 2024. Ingrid Doell, a member of the collective, clarified their new branding design uses a combination of Demur and Rubik, the latter of which is available on Google Fonts.

The 1919 Workers Collective logo—seen in the bottom right—was the inspiration for the custom typeface.
