PetrovFungia is the outcome of an experiment to remelt loose natural types to a meaningful structure of a typeface. The concept looked like a sort of joke: what letters appear like if based upon the shape of mushrooms. In a sense the structure of mushroom has some affinity to the structure of a letter: a cap and a stalk remind a serif and a stem respectively. So it was quite easy to create such straight letters like I, E, L, F. The captivating obstacle was to apply the idea on round letters (O, C, D, G), letters with diagonal (N, M, Z) and indications without serifs (digits, @, &&). The outcome exceeded expectations. The typeface turned advanced and dynamic however absolutely consistent. It ended up being capital-only font style in one weight.
Because of its luxurious types Fungia carries out finest in plus size and brief engravings. Nevertheless it supplies readability in small size as well. Fungia is most likely thing-in-itself. Initially it wasn't intended to fix specific design difficulties. But the alleged scope might consist of book covers, posters and billboards, street indications, magazin spreads and all circumstances that require expressive typography. Fungia supports prolonged latin and russian cyrillic script systems.
