Melancholy is designed to be a rough and blotchy typeface meant to replicate type from a typewriter. The letters themselves are imperfect and are intended to act as a more natural sans-serif, thus provide relief from reading normal perfect sans-serif typefaces. The Melancholy typeface family includes Regular, Delusional, and Glitch.
