Publisher: Canada TypeGuinevere Pro is a typeface designed by Icelandic art director Sigurdur Armannsson. It started in 2001 as basic hand-drawn sketches of a few letters built from modules, then became an experiment with 4 goals:
.- Build an initial alphabet from a specific set of predetermined modules.
- See how specific letter types built without said modules would act within the totality of the module-constructed alphabet.
- See if certain letters would actually enforce their own shapes to be drawn a specific method within the totality of the typeface. Likewise, see if the totality of the alphabet demands that private letters be drawn in a particular way, and if so, just how much space for variation would there be?
- See how all of the above reacts/changes to implemeting the alphabet across various weights.
The experiment was finessed and re-worked over several years of technology modifications, and Guinevere Pro is the final outcome, ten years later.
.The Guinevere Pro set is 4 cross-platform Open Type fonts, with built-in little caps, alternates, ligatures, and support for a vast array of Latin-based languages.
