Lumina Font Download

Lumina combines a fluid, informal look with an upright, fairly formal character structure. The font is reminiscent of leaded or stained glass, suggesting a trying to-be-solid outline with flowing inner spaces.

Characters are softened by the use of staggered heights and slightly irregular widths, creating the impression of hand-crafted, ink-drawn shapes. More…

Lumina is unusual in that it gives a medieval treatment to a modern character outline.

The outline has been given an irregular, slightly hand-crafted look that is at variance with its modern character and hints at both the informality of a grunge font and the carefully hand-drawn quality of medieval illuminated scripts (hence its name).

It is one of the few informal, compressed fonts that retains a high degree of legibility. Use it when you want your text to be both relaxed and readable, and yet take up very little space on the page.

Lumina Regular is not an outline font in the usual sense, since it contains one or more rounded hollows or lacunae within its outline.

Use Lumina for:

—Ecclesiastical book headings and illustrations

—Church posters

—Book covers

—Greeting card design

—Advertisements

—The “fine print”

The font contains a full 256 character set (upper and lower case, punctuation, diacritical characters, special symbols and numerals), in which all characters have been fully kerned and letter-spaced.

Lycian Monolith Font Download

I know what you're thinking: Where can I find a Lycian font that looks good and is easy to use? Look no further! This font has the Lycian characters both in their unicode positions, and where you can find them on the keyboard.

The glyphs in this font were based on those on a Kerei monument in Lycia.

I am not an archaeologist, so your feedback would be most welcome.

Sevillia Font Download

During a visit to Seville, Rick was very struck by the local tradition of street names made from tiles: from sketches and doodles made in 36°C, he and David produced a font with tiles formal and informal, dancing text and standing text - a family of four fonts for the price of one.

The tiles work as drop capitals to the dancing and standing texts, which also have their own normal caps.

Nordic Narrow Pro Font Download

The original spark for Nordic Narrow came to designer René Verkaart one day while drinking a glass of “Apfelschlore” (a carbonated water and apple juice mix). On the bottle logo he saw an intriguing “a”, and he started to sketch on a new typeface.

Though this single glyph served as an inspiration, the end result was something quite different. 

One of the trademarks of the typeface is the diagonal mid strokes. A reference to the nordic runes, which he studied during the design process.

More…

Even though Nordic Narrow has its base in a geometric grid, it still manages to keep an warm analogue touch.

Almost all shapes in Vecta are rounded to provide a friendly effect.

Proportions are somewhat condensed providing economic space usage.

Vecta looks equally at home in headlines as well as body text.

Ebisu Font Download

Ebisu is a sans serif family consisting of 10 different weights.

Designed by Alex Haigh in 2010, and influenced by one of his original designs from 2008 - Hiruko - Ebisu loses the soft sans serif curves, for a more robust geometric styling.

More…

But it’s much more than a geo-replica. The lowercase characters also have a more exaggerated sharpness that gives the whole family a unique look and feel.

The kerning has been individually crafted for each letter, with vigorous attention - to ensure that each letter from is produced in a way that works with every member of the set, for a tightly knit sans serif family.

It speaks many languages too.

The open type features have an extended character set to support Central, Eastern, and Western European languages. With each weight conveying a different personality, Ebisu is set to become the modern new sans serif family to sit alongside you classics for versatility, cleanliness and a crafted edge.

Titles, headlines, headers, logos, book covers, stickers, this font is appropriate for almost any use, and will leave a mark with its unique identity and its extreme readability!
