Kris is handwritten with a broad nib pen and ordinary black ink. The rather fanciful shapes are created by raising the pen arbitrarily left and right. This triggers unforeseeable frayed edges that make the typeface exciting. It bursts with character and is really versatile.
Kris is composed by the Dutch calligraphy artist Corrie Smetsers. Corrie tossed all basic characters in a plastic bag and René Verkaart built the typeface and produced all staying characters.
" Most unique about this job was working together with Corrie. She's an expert in handwriting and has established writing systems for the academic sector for decades", René states.
