Manhattan is a people silhouette font portraying street life in and around the streets, avenues and boulevards of Manhattan, New York. The set shows a cross section of people who are living in or visiting this vivacious city.

The wide variety of cultural and economic backgrounds of Manhattan people inspired us to document a moment in time of this ever changing and fast moving city.
Manhattan is a great place; busy, colourful, unpretentious, noisy, real and alive. Our pedestrians are punctuated with baseball caps, Bermuda shorts, sashaying city girls and traffic police. We think its full of that metropolitan vibe that only New York can do.

All illustrations are based on photographs taken in Manhattan over a period of time. The photographs are then hand traced to create high quality outlines.
