P22 Curwen Font Download

P22 Curwen was originally designed by an unknown designer. This version was created by Colin Kahn.

P22 Curwen Poster is a digitized version of a rare wood type used by the Curwen Press in England in the early 20th Century for poster work.

The font was known to have been cut in 6 sizes < from 3 line (3/4 inch) to 16 line(3 inch) in height. The font was based from impressions made of the 6 line type. More…

P22 Curwen Maxima is a hyper-stylized re-interpretation of Curwen Poster by Colin Kahn.

As a post-modern poster type, it evokes an organic nature within a novel maximalist framework. It is reminiscent of early phototype display faces with an illogical 3-dimensionality which serves to give the font continuity.

The capitals are buried beneath stylistic wood shavings complementing the sculpture like quality of the lowercase.

Perfect for (almost) any project.

Lavigne Font Download

Lavigne is a type family that is aimed at publications such as interior design and women’s magazines—anywhere a touch of distinction is desired. In the opinion of its designer, glossy magazines have been boring us with the same type families for years, with only a small group of fonts being used to denote refinement and sophistication.

The philosophy behind Lavigne is to achieve the high contrast and other refinements observed in classic modern serif typefaces, without borrowing too much from history.

Accordingly, the main source of inspiration was careful observation of pointed-pen calligraphy and sketching. More…

Lavigne Text is a 4-weight package optimized for ease of reading at small sizes.

It features generous x-height, short ascenders and descenders, open counters, and simplified details that improve its reproduction at small sizes.

Lavigne Text also has a solid presence on paper, and its typographic color make it ideal for the setting of fine books and magazines.

The ten distinct styles in Display and Text versions are available in OpenType format, which feature small caps and four sets of numbers (proportional old style, tabular old style, proportional lining, and tabular lining) as well as matching currency symbols.

Linotype Finerliner Font Download

Linotype Finerliner is part of the Take Type Library, chosen from the contestants of Linotype’s International Digital Type Design Contest. The American artist Gary Munch, from whom we also have Linotype Ergo and Ergo Sketch, designed Linotype Finerliner as a handwriting font with calligraphic influences.

The small, regularly formed lower case letters contrast nicely with the generous, sweeping capitals. The font is available in a light and medium weight and displays no stroke contrast. The lighter weight, micro, is best used for shorter texts in point sizes 18 or larger and the medium weight, macro, is mainly intended for headlines in larger point sizes.
