La Chata - Free Font

Fri, 06 Jan 2012 16:13:00 -0500

Arapey - Free Font

Mon, 02 Jan 2012 12:59:00 -0500

Arapey (Ah-ra-pay) is a contemporary modern typeface.

The first sketches of this typography were made during a vacation in Arapey, a small town the north of Uruguay, hence its name.

While this font style has reminiscences of a Bodoni, the structures, soft lines and finishes give the words that use it a calm and distinguished feeling.

The italics are gentle, rhythmic, and bring a special glamour to both text use and titles.

Pyke font

Sat, 10 Sep 2011 04:43:00 -0400

The typeface Pyke, named after the legibility researcher Richard Lionel Pyke, is a serif typeface inspired by the work of Giambattista Bodoni.

An early version of the typeface was subjected to experimental legibility investigations of distance and time threshold methods*. Participants were exposed to different variations of the most frequently misread lowercase letters. The findings, which were implemented in the final designs, demonstrated that in a short exposure the italic style ‘l’ with a tail has a higher visibility than the ‘l’ with serifs at the bottom, that the Italic style descending ‘f’ is more visible at distance than the Roman style ‘f’, that a closed aperture of the ‘e’ lowers visibility in a short exposure, and that the same goes for the closed aperture of the ‘c’ at distance.

Brokman Typeface

Thu, 08 Sep 2011 13:23:00 -0400
