Streamwood JNL is an outline sans wood type re-drawn from vintage source material. The design bears strong resemblance to Woodlawn JNL; but is a bit narrower and has a much different set of numbers as well as a more stylized letter “Q”.
The lettering for Stencil Box JNL was found on the packaging of a children’s toy stencil set circa the 1940s. Popular for years, Pencil Stencils were a series of “connect the line” stencils where a series of dashed lines were traced from the cutouts and the lines connected to complete pictures of animals or other subjects.
Although the packaging itself was often updated to reflect the current times during the life of the product, it was this hand-lettered example of stencil-meets-Art Deco from the 40s that proved worthy of saving as a digital typeface.
Statendam is an all caps Art Deco font. It reminds me of the bold lettering used for cruise ship posters from the interbellum, especially those used for the Holland America Line (HAL) ads. It is not a recreation of a particular typeface; merely my salute to a bygone era. Statendam comes with all diacritics.
The Srostky font is willful and stubborn. It is rude, but it is as natural as a country boy. The characters of this font were inspired by an image of the Russian countryside. The letters look as if they were felled with an ax.
It is named after the village in Altai region. This font is suitable for short sayings and titles.
SPOTLIGHT is an opulent typeface, with rebellious sharp lines resembling rays of light. Tilted glyphs create an illusion of motion, however several glyphs are vertical, precisely matching the tilted ones.
This is an exclusive typeface, designed to be used in titles and headlines at a large size.

Spiral is a digital transcription of a design by Joseph Blumenthal (1897-1990) which was hand-cut by Louis Hoell and cast by the Bauer foundry in 1930. The design with an italic added was later cut for Monotype and issued in 1936 as Emerson 320.
Sperling FY is a geometric and condensed high contrast font, characterized by its long vertical serifs. Its big i-dot as well as some other deliberately naive disproportions like the W are wonderful signs to identify Sperling FY.
The accompanying italic style illustrates well designed creative forms like the k or the z.
Due to its good legibility in small size, you can use it for editorial texts like in magazines.
You can also take great pleasure by using it in poster size.
Sperling FY comes out in roman and italic, each style from Regular to Black.
Sperling FY was co-created by Jan Dominik Gillich & Alisa Nowak on co-create.fontyou.com, the first collaborative type foundry.
