ScholtzI can best explain the Thaun household as a general function display screen household, motivated by Scholtz Fonts' Delikat. I wished to produce a display screen font style that was more robust than Delikat, without losing the delicacy of the original. In order to do this I thinned solid, curved strokes toward the baseline, and let them decrease to carefully rounded points.
As a graphic designer I realised that styles that utilized a number of designs from the same household seemed to work well. This was easily done using a basic sans serif typeface such as Arial or Helvetica. However, when a various appearance is needed, display typefaces do not always have a the variety of various designs that are necessary to produce a meaningful design.
Thus with Thaun, the challenge was to create a meaningful household based upon a screen typeface. The archetype of this family is Thaun Routine with 6 various widths forming carefully related designs. There are also 2 variations of the archetype i.e. Thaun Black & & Thaun Rough to include range to the main design. An additional sub-family, Thaun Accord, appears in two widths. Thaun Jazz is a wide three dimensional variation.
Thaun has all the features normally included in a totally expert font. Language support includes all European character sets, Greek symbols and all punctuation. Opentype functions include automatic replacement of some characters and discretionary replacement of stylistic alternatives.
