Metzulut - Headline Typeface

Metzulut (in Hebrew: The depths of the sea) is a fresh headlines font, drawing inspiration from the Hebrew cover of Pierre de Latil's book De Nautilus au Bathyscophe (1961). The font's design is influenced by stone inscriptions, as well as by Zvi Hausman's classical font, Hazvi.

Done as part of Type Design course led by Danny Meirav. Special thanks to Dan Sarid for the meticulous critique during the process
