Alexandra Korolkova (Russian: Александра Королькова) (born 1984) is a Russian typeface designer.[1][2] She was awarded the infrequently presented Prix Charles Peignot in 2013 by the Association Typographique Internationale, becoming the first Russian prizewinner.[3][4]
Korolkova's best-known work is probably the PT Fonts project, a partly open-source project commissioned by the Russian Ministry of Communications as a single family able to support all the common variations of the Cyrillic script.[5][6][7][8]
Korolkova works for the company ParaType and studied at the Moscow State University of Printing Arts.[9][10] She is the author of the book Living Typography (Russian: Живая типографика) and has also given lectures on Cyrillic letter structure.[11][12][13] She has also designed the typeface FF Carina for FontShop.[14][15]
