This publication presents twelve new alphabets and their application in Rosmarie Tissi’s work, eight of which are published here for the first time. Simultaneously, Tissi revised and expanded the Sinaloa alphabet, her most iconic and popular design. LL Sinaloa is the only digital version authorised by Rosmarie Tissi and is available from the Lineto type foundry.

Rosmarie Tissi is a graphic designer based in Zurich.
