Henderson Slab Font

Designer: Alejandro Paul
Publisher: Sudtipos

Henderson Piece was designed by Alejandro Paul and released by Sudtipos. Henderson Slab contains 28 designs and household bundle options. p > A few strong caps drawn by Albert Du Bois for the 1906 Henderson Indication Painter book began me in the instructions of looking at how sign painters approached pieces after the commercial transformation. The usual occurred from there. My workout in the early lettering roots of what ultimately became the meaning of geometric typography ended up having a life of its own. The majuscules caused minuscules, one distinctive strong weight led to six more, and uprights caused italics. What was kind-of-interesting in the early twentieth century convinced me to make it fascinating enough a century later on. This of course indicated alternates, swashes, the standard luggage that keeps calling my name.

Henderson Piece is a family of seven weights plus italics, all full of open functions and extended Latin language assistance. Part of this household's appeal is its coverage of nearly the entire of the slab serif through the last 100 years - the basis is the manual, humanist origins, the swashed kinds come right out of the phototypesetting period, and the alternates and mostly modern constructs of modern ideas. The outcome is a set with the ability to function in contemporary spaces, from corporate to editorial, in text or screen, while both winking and nodding at the roots of what is now thought about a geometric endeavor.
