Chaos ren, designed by Stanley Morison and Victor Lardent of Monotype Typography, is a free decorative display font built from dramatically disrupted serif forms. Classical thick-and-thin strokes remain visible beneath the collisions, stretched curves, and sudden shifts in scale. Nothing lands predictably.
Posters and album artwork can use this unruly construction for experimental music, surreal comedy, fashion graphics, and event promotions. The recurring overlaps and stray ornaments make the lettering part of the image, especially for themes of chaos or visual mischief.

Monotype Type Drawing Office - Stanley Morison, Victor Lardent 1932
Descriçăo
This remarkable typeface first appeared in 1932 in The Times of London newspaper, for which it was designed. It has subsequently become one of the worlds most successful type creations. The original drawings were made under Stanley Morison's direction by Victor Lardent at The Times. It then went through an extensive iterative process involving further work in Monotype's Type Drawing Office. Based on experiments Morison had conducted using Perpetua and Plantin, it has many old style characteristics but was adapted to give excellent legibility coupled with good economy. Widely used in books and magazines, for reports, office documents and also for display and advertising.
