Lomo Web

1997–1998

Originally developed for the Lomographic Society, The LOMO WEB font includes 10 font styles. The LOMO FONT includes 5 font families with Lomo-Wall, Lomo-Copy, Lomo-Web, Lomo-Samples & Lomo-ActionSampler

Discipline: Font design
Publisher: LINOTYPE/MONOTYPE

From 1997 to 1999, the Lomographic Society developed a new website with Australian web designer Julian Wong. Wong wanted a custom font for this design because there was no suitable font available on the global market for the internet at that time. As a result, the second Lomo font family was created almost simultaneously from 1997 to 1998: LomoWeb, a capital mini web font based on 5-pixel letter height and a square pixel point for the smallest possible use on screen. The font initially contained ten font styles to ensure typographic flexibility. 

In 2002, Linotype/Monotype released 10 styles of LomoWeb.
