Vanderbrand commissioned internationally acclaimed type foundry Letters from Sweden to develop a typeface that would reflect One Delisle’s transformation from a square retail base to a 16-sided circular floorplate. The foundry began by designing the wordmark, which became the base for the complete typeface. One Delisle Display is a contemporary sans serif which balances sophistication and complexity by honouring the architectural ingenuity of the tower.
