Conto is a clear and minimized sans serif typeface in 8 weights (upright, italic). It is mainly developed for business identity along with the editorial design and marketing. A special set of ligatures make the font styles really useful for logo type and lettering. The sophisticated Thin and the strong Black weights are working well in display screen typography, while the Regular, Medium and Strong weights are suggested to stay well in text and tables.

Main particular are the minimalistic and lowered lowercase shapes (a/b/d/ g/m/n/ p/q/r/ u). Another particular feature is the increasing contrast. Whereas you can not find any contrast in the Thin weight, you will find increasingly more contrast while going up to Black.

Conto's special ligatures are made for logo-types and lettering. For that reason you discover Discretionary Ligatures like ‘‘ r_a,' ‘‘ e_i,' ‘ s_t_u' or ‘ r_i' and numerous more!!! Try the OT-feature ss01. Maybe there is something nice for your next logo.

Conto includes around 880 glyphs and supports all latin-script based languages. It likewise includes small-caps and all type of figures you require for severe typography. Naturally you have case and small-cap delicate punctuation and portions as much as 1/9 (oneninth).

Nils Thomsen began to draw Conto in 2008. It is influenced by the lonely streets of north scandinavia and the dark forrest around. While cycling through the nature and drinking water from rivers the idea of an easy geometric typeface was born.

In remembrance of Peter Bruhn! Actually Conto should be published at the water fountain foundry. Throughout my studies in The Hague I talked to Peter. The interview is gathered in the book 158 answers. Towards this we had a great exchange about my typeface. After some corrections he decided to launch Conto. Thanks you for your help, Peter !!!
