Marvin Visions is a modern and consistent reinterpretation of Marvin, a typeface originally designed by Michael Chave in 1969 and published by Face Photosetting. It has been revived and expanded by Mathieu Triay for the identity of Visions, a new science fiction magazine.

When everyone is looking for the next workhorse, Marvin Visions does one thing well: it stands out. Like the original, it’s uppercase only. Unlike the original, this new design wants to be more sturdy and versatile with a total of ten weights across two families: Marvin Visions Big for display use, and Marvin Visions Small for short text.

It sports diacritics for most European languages and supports Cyrillic. It has been enhanced with a number of symbols, including arrows and an ‘at sign’, on top of a completely redrawn figure set. You can see it in action throughout this page and in the postcards and posters below. The typeface used for the text you’re reading is the free & open‑source Bricolage Grotesque.
