Autora is a typeface for books designed during the Type@Cooper program in 2016. The project started with the observation of the first printed books, found in New York City libraries. The study focused on the color of the texts as well as the calligraphic look and the proportions of the Venetian typography. As a result, Autora is a modern typeface which revives some of that beauty in order to enhance the reading experience. In spite of the accurate work done, by now, this font is just a prototype that allowed its author, for the first time, to explore the text size universe. The completion is not scheduled.
