Enricovar is a typeface family conceived as a bridge between the traditional Latin alphabet and the various indigenous languages of Mexico. Its purpose is to offer an inclusive typographic system that accurately represents the phonetic and cultural richness of the country's linguistic communities.

Developed by the Mexican foundry Typemade, under the direction of Santiago Orozco, the typography seeks to systematize the necessary graphic resources for the eleven Mexican linguistic families, integrating both the signs of the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) and specific glyphs that respond to the characteristic sounds of each language.

Enricovar aims to cover the 68 linguistic groupings recognized in Mexico, many of them with ancestral origins and different conditions of vitality -from languages at risk of disappearing to those with hundreds of thousands of speakers-, thus consolidating itself as a typographic design project that celebrates and preserves the linguistic and cultural diversity of the country (Gràffica, n.d.).
