Ottavo is a new line of reading glasses created by designer eyewear company Eponym in collaboration with Mucca Design:
The brand’s modernist ideals are expressed through a minimal color palette, plenty of negative space and clean sans serif typography, lightened by an irreverent tone of voice.
From the packaging to the website, Halyard Display was chosen for all typographic aspects of the Ottavo identity. Halyard’s personality is at once familiar and pleasingly distinctive. Mucca perfectly understood how to employ this quality for the desired modernist look. From Halyard Display’s 8-weight range they selected the most suitable weight. Then they fine-tuned the brand’s appearance by choosing from the large variety of alternates included in Halyard. We are thrilled to see our latest release put to such considerate use.
