Cuneimo Display is inspired by ancient cuneiform tablets. Originally impressed into clay with a reed stylus, cuneiform marks preserve the trace of pressure and material. This early writing system informed the development of our typeface, which pays homage to one of the first recorded systems of written communication.
Inspired by ancient cuneiform tablets, the identity is anchored by a custom typeface that references one of the earliest systems of writing. Originally impressed into clay with a reed stylus, cuneiform marks carry the trace of pressure and material. This historical foundation informs "Primo," an independent publishing imprint dedicated to first books by emerging artists. Each title is produced by hand in small editions, prioritizing materiality, process, and the intimacy of print.
