Preface was designed by Nick Shinn and released by Shinntype. Preface contains 12 designs and family package choices. p > Preface vs. Helvetica/Futura/Gill: a different technique of text color.

Whereas the recognized classes of sans serif typeface attain a dynamic balance between stroke and area by integrating a variety of letterform with a consistency of fit, Beginning changes the focus, eliminating diagonals to create a dominant harmony of curves and perpendiculars, matched with a greater range of inter-character area shapes-the outcome of extra width introduced in the "f" and "t", and by the openness that accompanies the broad tails of the" a" and "l", the long ear of the "r", and the serif of the "i".

En masse, and in keeping with today trend in typography, Beginning displays a coarser texture than the standard sans serif faces, but one that is however even and precise.

With tabular, oldstyle figures.
