Graffiti Alphabets: Street Fonts from Around the World
A Global Showcase of Graffiti Lettering
Graffiti and street art have long inspired designers, creatives, and cultural movements around the world. Graffiti Alphabets by Claudia Walde presents a one-of-a-kind collection of complete Latin alphabets created by 154 graffiti artists from 30 different countries. Each alphabet highlights the creativity, skill, and individuality of artists who typically focus on stylized tag letters rather than full sets.
Featuring World-Renowned Street Artists
From iconic names like 123 Klan (Canada), Faith47 (South Africa), and Hera (Germany) to emerging talents, this book celebrates the diversity and innovation of graffiti typography. Artists were given the same task: design all 26 letters of the alphabet on a single page. The results span across traditional graffiti, sketches, sculpture, digital art, and photography, reflecting the limitless potential of street-inspired design.

With over 400 full-color illustrations, this visually striking book is a must-have for graphic designers, typographers, graffiti lovers, and anyone passionate about urban art. It’s both a reference and a piece of art history, capturing the dynamic intersection of street culture and design innovation.
