Drool is a sinister display serif by Forth+Back inspired by H.R. Giger’s Xenomorph design for Ridley Scott’s 1979 film Alien. Each character feels alive, as if grown rather than drawn, with curving terminals and slick connective tissue binding its anatomy together. The result is a biomechanical serif that pulses with tension: elegant yet unsettling, familiar yet grotesque.
In this 200 page type specimen, we showcase the font from A to Z with select render artwork and collaged extraterrestrial inspiration from the film and beyond.
