Developed by David Bergsland, Boxy is a screen sans font family. This typeface has 4 styles and was released by Hackberry Typeface Foundry.

In my on-going mission for screen typefaces to be used with my books and on my book covers, I chose I need a squared sans serif. I started the build off of Fiscal, a typeface I developed back in 2006. I never liked the font, plus my tastes have actually changed. So, I opened it, made it narrower, increased the x-height, and different stuff like that. I made it much heavier-- a wound up with Boxy.

Then my brain slapped me and stated, "Why don't you make a sorta modern-day version?" So, I did and chose to call that style Chic. However then I desired a thin version also. Fiscal was constantly too heavy and ponderous for me. So, I made the Thin design. Finally, I felt I required an italic of Chic.

OpenType functions didn't appear to work well with the family, so all I added was oldstyle figures. So, I ended up with another of my special households-- with 2 unmodulated font styles: Thin and Medium, and 2 regulated font styles: Trendy and Elegant Italic. But, I'm pleased with it. My hope is that you will like it also.
