Hogar Sample Text

Hogar is beautiful in its simplicity. A monolinear script font that pairs up with a sans, it’s the concept of our design kits distilled to their purest form. If you're looking for clean and contemporary with a unified theme, Hogar would make a great pick. Included are interior design dingbats, making it especially suited to home related design projects.

Bourton Poster

Bourton Sample Text

Bourton is a multi-style family with an old city vibe that’s almost Americana in style. It has your typical combo of sans and script (with some rough options), but it also includes some great inline layering choices that make putting a poster together rather effortless. All this variety for only $99 is a great deal.

In the last month, Adobe has announced their work on OpenType-SVG fonts, a brand new font technology that allows the addition of SVGs to existing text. Currently they have two fonts available, EmojiOne Color and Trajan Color Concept. We're excited to see how this technology gets used by creative designers.

Thomas Rickner, formerly lead typographer at Apple, shares some of his early work on bringing quality digital typography to the masses through the Mac. While not the entire story, it’s a great glimpse into the behind-the-scenes work that birthed the type industry as we know it today.
