Filmotype Havana was among the company’s earliest connecting brush-lettered casuals and was introduced by Filmotype in 1955 as a smoother, condensed weight of its popular cousin Horizon.
Filmotype Havana was developed from the original font filmstrips and includes a full international character complement, automatic fractionals, ordinals, and a wonderful assortment of alternate characters and ligatures to create a genuine connecting hand-painted look in dynamic OpenType format.
Initially designed in the early-to-mid 1950s and likely inspired by the styles made popular by Lettering, Inc, Filmotype Ford solves the needs of customers looking for a more heavy duty sans serif style with a 1940s sensibility.
Even with its ultra wide characters, Filmotype Ford retains its legibility at a variety of sizes.
Remastered and expanded with exacting precision from the original filmstrips, Filmotype Ford includes a full international character complement, automatic fractionals, ordinals, and a suite of alternate forms in dynamic OpenType format.
