Milltype A typeface inspired by the captivating lettering in Kilmainham Mill 2024
Milltype is a serif display typeface inspired by the rich history and craftsmanship of Kilmainham Mill in Dublin. Drawing from the irregularities found in the mill’s old-style metal lettering, the typeface embraces the imperfections that give these letterforms their unique charm. Each character carries the weight of the mill’s past, reflecting the textures, wear, and human touch embedded in its industrial heritage. Milltype is not just a typeface—it is a tribute to the enduring personality of a place shaped by time, labor, and craft.
