Influenced by the paintings and signs of Central and Southern Mexico mainly. With vernacular spirit and making reference to the recurrent superlative to highlight the names and commercial turns of businesses in popular areas such as: Superpollería Juanita or Super Ofertas, are examples of this. Super is the result of several combinations and styles of stroke of the sign letters, which combine or emulate existing letters, as well as effects and rare and twisted perspectives of the letters of fence, to logos of sonidero, letters mochas of printing, imperfect impressions of posters for popular dances, wrestling and boxing, pilgrimages and local fairs, and that combine suggestive strokes to improvisation, which in itself gives the grace and very particular style. Each one of the variants has a flavor that is differentiated and/or complemented with other weights and variants. The Tíbiri and Rotulista variants were included as a collaboration on a CD as free typography in the first edition of the iconic book Sensacional de Diseño Mexicano.
