ITC Typados是Roselyne和Michel Besnard的共同努力的结果，它由两个词义不同的字符组成。首先，它当然是由字母和符号组成，简洁清晰，字宽很宽，x高度也很高。逐渐变细犹如刷子一样的笔画有点新艺术风格。但是，ITC Typados的图形也是由具有戏剧感的字符组成：逐渐变细的body上有一个小泪珠形状的头，它们把自己弯曲成字母的形状，同时又保持着自己的生命。
该字体是基于Michel的雕塑和绘画中一个反复出现的人物，Ado。“Ado是第一个在我所有创作中歌唱并反复表演的角色。”Michel说：“这次冒险为我的绘画和雕塑带来了新的形式”。“Type”加上许多“Ados”就是ITC Typados。”

ITC Typados is the joint effort of Roselyne and Michel Besnard and is composed of characters in two different senses of the word. First, it is of course made of letters and symbols, clean and legible with generous widths and x-heights. There is a hint of Art Nouveau style in the tapering, brush-like strokes. But the figures of ITC Typados are also made of characters in the theatrical sense: little tear-drop heads on tapering bodies that bend themselves into the shapes of an alphabet while maintaining a life of their own. The typeface is based on a recurring character in Michel's sculpture and painting, Ado. Ado is the first character who sings and repeats itself in all my creations," says Michel. "This adventure brings new forms for my painting and my sculpture: coiffed heads, bodies in the form of a cone, arms in the form of spread wings, etc." "Type" plus a number of "Ados" equals ITC Typados."
