Roger Excoffon and Phill Grimshaw created the Choc Font Family, which was released by ITC. Choc offers family packages in two different designs. The thick yet elegant Choc typeface was created by French designer Roger Excoffon and is inspired by the customs of Japanese brush calligraphy. Phil Grimshaw created the Choc lite typeface, which he had to redo numerous times in various weights before settling on one that worked as a text face and stayed true to the original.
The conventional view among designers in the 1980s was that it was one of Excoffon’s “tacky fonts that should have only been used for parodying the shop front of a regional butcher, baker, or hair salon” due to its lack of modernity.
Choc was sold digitally in the 1990s as Staccato 555 with the graphics program CorelDraw.
Use of Choc font
Excoffon’s continuous and ultimately unsuccessful attempts to make his typeface Mistral bold led to the development of the typeface. You can pair it with the combination of nimbus sans font.
Choc may have gained popularity in signing via CorelDraw’s extensive use in sign businesses. Choc is frequently employed in signs for Asian establishments as a result of the letterforms’ apparent (intended or not) resemblance to East Asian calligraphy.
In New York City, where it is widely seen, The New York Times reported in 2018 that “Choc has become a typographical shorthand for Asian-themed restaurants.”
