Cercle is a themed magazine, with its 11th issue published in May 2023 dedicated to mythology. For the occasion, Ariel Martín Pérez designed a custom typeface named Luperca. The typeface, now published by Tunera Type Foundry, is inspired by Roman capitals, with contemporary calligraphic influences in some of the letters and various ligatures, alternate glyphs and nested characters. The five optical sizes of the typeface means that it could be used in several kinds of titles, quotes and subtitles.

Luperca can be downloaded for free on Tunera.

The standard typefaces used for the magazine are Wigrum by Production Type and ITC Spirit by Jovica Veljović.
