Ilica

Ilica is a typeface created for Zagreb's street signalization by typographers Nikola Đurek and Damir Bralić in 2012. It was named after the synonymous street in Donji grad, where new street signalization featuring the font was supposed to be put up first. The font features 16 variations and was designed as a "contemporary interpretation" of the secessionist inscriptions on the faces of many historical buildings in Zagreb, in combination with features from other old inscriptions in the city that constitute its typographic heritage. The typeface was designed on specific request from the government of Zagreb to complement new regulations brought in 2013 to unify street signalization and house number plates across the city. It won an award for best professional design of spatial and graphical interventions and sistems from the Croatian Designers' Society in 2014.
