Generis Serif Font Download

Download Generis Serif Font Download

The idea for the Generis type system came to Erik Faulhaber while he was traveling in the USA. Seeing typefaces mixed together in a business district motivated him to create a new type system with interrelated forms.

The first design scheme came about in 1997, following the space saving model of these American Gothics. More…

Faulhaber then examined the demands of legibility and various communications media before finally developing the plan behind this type system. Generis’s design includes two individually designed styles; each of with is available with and without serifs, giving the type system four separate families. Each includes at least four basic weights: Light, Regular, Medium, and Bold. Further weights, small caps, old style figures, and true italics were added to each family where needed.

The Generis type system is designed to meet both optical criteria and the highest possible measure of technical precision. Harmony, rhythm, legibility, and formal restraint make up the foreground. Generis combines aesthetic, technical, and economic advantages, which purposefully and efficiently cover the whole range of corporate communication needs.

The unified basic form and the individual peculiarity of the styles lead to Generis’ systematic, total-package concept. The clear formal language of the Generis type system resides beneath the information, bringing appropriate typographic expression to high-level corporate identity systems, both in print and on screen. The condensed and aspiring nature of the letterforms allows for the efficient setting of body copy, and the economic use of the page. A range of accented characters allows text to be set in 48 Latin-based languages, offering maximal typographic free range. This previously unknown level of technical and design execution helps create higher quality typography in all areas of corporate communication.

Optimal combinations within the type system: Generis Serif or Generis Slab with Generis Sans or Generis Simple.

Surf Serif Pro Font Download

Surf Serif Pro

Surf Serif is the font that retains some features and proportions of the old-style antiqua, but is adapted for modern conditions, mainly screen ones.

Its uncompromising hard lines and corners create an expressive contemporary image being used in larger point sizes accidents.

In the text sizes the font proportions, its triangular serifs and the displaced stresses cause some associations with the early Renaissance and even a gothic style. It makes the text useful where brutal modernity must be combined with historical allusions.

More…

For example the font seems to be suitable for decoration and advertising of modern Gothic fashion.

Bree Serif Font Download

Bree Serif

In 2008 TypeTogether released the Bree typeface, a sleek sans serif that quickly became a favorite among brand and editorial designers.

Bree Serif follows the same theme as its predecessor.

It is a young and energetic upright italic that approaches readers with hip and somewhat elegant charm. It has a range of styles that can perform as counterparts to the original Bree fonts.

At the same time though they bring a whole range of new and individual features that make Bree Serif a separate type family in its own right. More…

The characters in Bree Serif maintain the original flavour of handwriting, but have a more subtle appearance to support optimal editorial usage.

The slabby nature of its shapes, particularly in the heavier weights, makes for a strong impression.

Some of the characteristic features of its sans serif cousin are present in Bree Serif too, such as the single-story ‘a’, the cursive ‘e’ and the rhythmical ‘k’ and ‘y’.

Alternate letters of these are also available when a more neutral look is desired.

Bree Serif offers a mixture of fluid and attractive forms that convey a contemporary and vivid aspect.

If you loved the multi- award winning Bree, you will surely love its seriffed cousin!
