Typeface Berlewi FA is inspired by stencil letters of vanguard creator, Henryk Berlewi. Berlewi was a precursor of contemporary typography, a painter, an art theoretician and the creator of the mechano-facture (Mechano-Faktura) theory. In 1924 he designed a poster for his mechano-facture one-man show in Warsaw Austro-Daimler car salon. An attention-grabbing composition, both dynamic and full of contrast with stencil lettering was doubtless a real innovation and according to Berlewi – the first typographic poster to be made in Poland.
