Cordier Script & Ceraph for Markéta Foukalová Jinak LP

Czech singer and songwriter Markéta Foukalová released her debut solo album Jinak in 2025, marking a significant shift from her work as the frontwoman of Lanugo into a more intimate, author-driven practice. The visual language of the project, developed by Josefina Karlíková, using Ceraph & Cordier Script extends this sensibility into the graphic realm.

The album resists immediacy and commercial formulas, instead inviting a more active, reflective engagement from the listener. Her art direction combines the calligraphic dynamism of Cordier Script—rooted in 17th-century penmanship yet reinterpreted with expressive fluidity—with the sculptural elegance of Ceraph, a contemporary flared serif balancing classical structure and humanistic softness. Together, these typographic choices echo the album’s core tension between tradition and reinvention, intimacy and form.
