Publisher: Juraj ChrastinaIt all began with my affection for geometric typefaces. I have constantly liked their disproportion. Unlike modern percentages types with quite a plain look, geometric typefaces tend to keep some dynamism and depth.
The choice was taken that my new face ought to be based on the elementary forms of geometry. But some questions stayed. The legibility and the friendliness of such designs.
The generous x-height of Gentleman, consistent throughout the household, increased the legibility and permitted a low-contrast construction even for thicker weights.
While the sans-serif simpleness looks cool and modern-day, a number of subtle decorative interruptions have the ability to improve the design by character and by a warm and organic feeling. Certainly, Gentleman got a few distinct components. The uppercase G has no bar. The letters a, d, l and p gotten outstroke terminals. A double-story a left more space to the creativity.
And at the end of the limitless refinements and revisions, here we are with the Gentleman family, trying to end up being eye-pleasing in spite of its geometric simplicity.
Gentleman is available in 10 weights from hairline to black.
The fonts are equipped with thoroughly fine-tuned kerning tables.
