Neo Indisch Slab Font
About
Introducing a "NEO INDISCH SLAB" Font.
DESCRIPTION:
Neo Indisch Slab: Eene nieuwe stem voor de oude letteren van Soerabaja, Oost Java.
"Neo Indisch Slab" is a slab-accented display sans-serif that reimagines Surabaya’s colonial-era lettering (1900–1940) through the lens of bricolage. In this design context, bricolage is a creative process of recombining visual fragments sourced from archival colonial typography to construct a new letter system with contemporary functional meaning.
Inspired by typographic remnants from Surabaya’s city center, Indonesia (1900's)—specifically the ANIEM Building, Toko NAM, Toko Piet, and the Loe Tiong Yan storefront—this typeface geometrical structures with the blocky terminals characteristic of Indisch (Dutch colonial-era) sign painting. The letterforms feature low-to-medium contrast, squarish proportions, floating diagonals in the ‘M’ and ‘W’, and decorative flare terminals that create a distinctive visual rhythm. Designed as an homage to the Dutch East Indies typographic landscape, Neo-Indish Slab offers a modernized historical aesthetic suitable for contemporary branding, editorial design, and visual identities.
