Milonga, designed by Pablo Impallari, Brenda Gallo, and Rodrigo Fuenzalida, is a free old-school display font with theatrical, high-contrast lettering. Tall, narrow forms are punctuated by broad curves and curled, split-ended details. Its changing stroke widths give the letters a lively, poster-like silhouette.
It can lend vintage drama to music posters and restaurant branding, with the decorative shapes serving both entertainment and hospitality. Packaging gains a similarly ornate period accent. Book covers and event invitations also suit its blend of formal proportions and eccentric finishing strokes.

Milonga is a Font inspired on ÒtanguerosÓ art.
This is a tribute to the ÒrioplatenseÓ culture, so colored, full of love and hate, family, friends and enemies stories told in countless Tangos and Milongas (folk music genre from Argentina).
This graceful, flowing and rhythmic font is conformed by graphic elements from a kind of classic painting from this area called Òfileteado porteoÓ; with terminations involving petals, round and pointy details.
Milonga is useful for headlines, where the characteristics of font are highlighted.
