The Ivy Foundry is an independent type design studio based in Denmark, founded in 2016 by graphic designer Jan Maack. The foundry is named after the 'fleuron,' a typographic ornament symbolizing an ivy leaf. Maack, with a background in art direction and graphic design since 1990, established the foundry to create versatile typefaces that cater to diverse design needs. Notable typefaces from The Ivy Foundry include IvyPresto (a 16th-century inspired serif in three optical sizes), IvyMode (a high-contrast sans with flared strokes), IvyOra (a Dutch Old Face revival from historical specimens), IvyJournal (a readable transitional serif), and IvyStyle Sans (a clean, humanist sans for print and digital use).
