You would like to
express tradition by using a contemporary font?
Sintesi might be exactly what you are looking for.
Sintesi stands for synthesis – the unification of serif and
sans-serif into a contemporary font, which surprises with different
facets depending on its application. In copy size Sintesi performs
like a sans-serif. It is a compact and well readable font that fulfills
all requirements of modern digital media.In larger sizes, Sintesi
unfolds its traditional character. Now, its strong contrast and the
perceptible feather-ductus stand out clearly, as we appreciate it
in a historical old style face.
Its cursive character has more to do with writing-speed than to
its moderate inclination. Therefore it may be convenient in more
ways than just for emphasizing purposes.
The whole font family consists of 20 styles and offers a wide range
of Western and Eastern European special characters, typographical
ligatures, uppercase, oldstyle and fraction figures.
Mimix is specially
designed for comic fans and all typographers who like to play.
This font is ideal to express spontaneity and joy of life. Where
Mimix is used, there’s life. The characters are lined up in
a row, a face is looking out of the page. Big ears surround an oval
head. Mimix skilfully combines the elegance of a modern roman with
the spontaneity of casual handwriting. Thoroughly developed, Mimix
includes ten weights from UltraThin through Black. Unconventional – complete
with ligatures, special characters for Western and Eastern European
languages, uppercase, lining and old style figures as well as fractions – Mimix
belongs in every typographical toy-box. Declare war on monotony – with
Mimix, the one with charm.
Pixels and Gothic
Letters? Sounds like Klingon.
The Atoxina family is designed especially for the burgeoning market of starships
and other space cruisers. The fonts are ideal for internal and external use (including
zero-g and occasional bursts of cosmic rays), and with their simplified forms
are expected to survive well in non-linear galaxies. With their unusual diagonal
half-pixels the fonts are striking as abstract designs at astronomical sizes,
where small text may be placed within the black holes formed inside the letters.
