Featured regularly in works by illustrators, painters and printmakers, Our Lady of Good Counsel was built between 1964-65 and given the bronze regional medal of the RIBA and Civic Trust Award in 1966.

Glasgow’s only A-listed post-war church, this architectural landmark in Dennistoun is full of striking angles, with a tapered copper-clad roof and deep eaves. Under its wooden ceiling, the scale of the space is made more striking by the light filtered through the single-coloured stained glass windows.

The typeface derives its shape from the irregular-angled building and its architectural plans. Wide, and with a narrow weight, it’s designed to stand out and make a statement but remain functional – much like the church itself.
