Experience the precision, elegance and history of the Chalet font family. This collection of ten typefaces in three unique styles is the creative genius of acclaimed clothing designer René Albert Chalet. Originally used in his early advertising campaigns, Chalet appropriately echoes the attitude of its creator: function with flair. Modest and unpretentious yet bold and daring, Chalet’s distinctive air allows for a variety of uses ranging from text to display applications. Add modern panache to any design with the Chalet font family.

While we can’t comment of the suggested definitions for ‘tuggle’ that you might encounter online, we are happy to expound on Tuggle’s quirky and endearing characters. The gravity of its bellbottom slab-serif structure is mitigated by soft rounded corners, while surging swashes and globular stroke endings further attenuate Tuggle’s otherwise would-be uptight tenor. The ideal typographic solution for children’s blocks, candy packaging, vape shop signage, and hospital way finding. Pair Tuggle with an equally juicy script like Dave West’s Superstar. Designed by the Photo-Lettering staff, and digitized by Susana Carvalho.
