Designer: Anton Scholtz' Delikat'. I desired to produce a screen typeface that was more robust than Delikat, without losing the special of the initial. In order to do this I thinned strong, curved strokes towards the baseline, and let them diminish to gently rounded points.
As a graphic designer I realised that styles that utilized a variety of designs from the very same household seemed to work well. This was easily done utilizing a basic sans serif font style such as Arial or Helvetica. However, when a different look is required, display font styles do not always have a the range of various styles that are required to produce a coherent design.
Thus with Thaun, the obstacle was to produce a meaningful family based on a display typeface. The archetype of this household is Thaun Routine with six different widths forming carefully associated designs. There are also two versions of the archetype i.e. Thaun Black & & Thaun Rough to include range to the main style. An extra sub-family, Thaun Accord, appears in 2 widths. Thaun Jazz is a large 3 dimensional variation.
Thaun has all the features usually included in a totally professional typeface. Language support includes all European character sets, Greek symbols and all punctuation. Opentype functions consist of automated replacement of some characters and discretionary replacement of stylistic alternatives.
