Madawaska’s stocky, weighty design channels the very essence of the Canadian landscape. With eight robust weights and their italic counterparts, this typeface family offers a versatility that spans from whisper-quiet forest trails to thunderous rapids. Each character is crafted with the precision of a master woodworker, resulting in letterforms that are as sturdy and reliable as the oldest growth pines. But Madawaska isn’t content with mere strength. It pushes the boundaries of typography with its two scuzzy effect styles: Madawaska Jeans and Madawaska River.
