Homenaje is inspired by the bronze cemetery art found in the Recoleta and Chacaritas districts of Buenos Aires, Argentina. A grotesque and narrow type, it provides economy in text setting without losing its strong, straight and steady features. The name “Homenaje” means tribute in Spanish, a modest way to honor the patient and accurate work of the lettering artists whose bronze letters honor a lifetime.
