Cubanica is a design studio and font foundry established in 2000 by Pablo A. Medina.
Rooted in Tribeca, New York City, Cubanica believes design comes from the investigation and interpretation of culture. We strive to find a cultural essence with each project we work on. Our work has been featured in the Design Triennial exhibition at the Smithsonian’s Cooper Hewitt Museum, and a Cubanica book design for Coisa Linda is housed within the Museum of Modern Art. Various works have appeared in a range of print publications, and clients include the Museum of Modern Art, The New York Times, Zoo York, Nat Nast, and many others.
