Slavutych is the youngest city in Ukraine, which was established after the Chernobyl explosion.

In 2019, Ukrainian designer Kateryna Korolevtseva designed the Misto typeface, as a love letter to Slavutych — the city where she was born. “Misto” means “city” in Ukrainian.

In 2021, the city authorities of Slavutych used Misto for an art installation in the central park to mark the 35th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster. The clock stopped and always shows the time of the explosion.
