Bibliophile
Bibliophile Script, designed by Alejandro Paul, is a subtitle font with strong calligraphic roots, steeped in history and inherited gestures. A typeface that seems to come from another time, but which works with surprising naturalness in the present.

Alejandro Paul defines his work as a way of rescuing almost extinct arts to make them work today, like someone who dismantles old car parts to build something new.
This idea connects deeply with our way of understanding design: looking back not out of nostalgia, but to find tools with soul.
At Lo Siento, we wanted to explore this material dimension of typography and create a typographic specimen worked with ink, where each letter ceases to be just a shape and becomes a stroke, pressure, error and texture. The ink does not illustrate the typography: it tests it, dirties it, humanises it.
Because even in a world dominated by screens, we still believe that ideas are better understood when they can be touched.
