TT Barrels graphic discussion at Behance
TT Barrels is a stylish scotch design contemporary serif with strong industrial accents in its style. The TT Barrels job was born from a fictional technical project in which we attempted to combine the technological effectiveness of industrial production used in engineering and the constraints enforced by it with a beautiful scotch style serif. We chose to create a typeface that could be used to push letters on the metal body of a car, all while the typeface being elegant, and possessing advanced information that are normal of the classic text typefaces of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
In the procedure of designing and sketching, we reconsidered certain elements and deserted a few of the requirements imposed by the technology of metal letter pressing, for instance, from the extensive application of visual compensators, the reduced strokes contrast, and the hyperdeformation of individual letter elements to preserve a more pronounced rhythm of these components. First of all, we desired both to maintain the ease of checking out for the whole text range and follow the guidelines of aesthetic appeals of each letter in the typeface, while still leaving some impact of industrialism. In the end, this impact is best manifested in serifs, which are rather huge and have a highly exaggerated wedge shape.
TT Barrels consists of 12 typefaces: Light, Routine, DemiBold, Vibrant, Extrabold, Black and the corresponding Italics. Each outline consists of more than 750 glyphs and consists of little capitals, ligatures (for Latin and Cyrillic alphabets), stylistic alternates, old-style figures, and lots of other helpful features. The complete list of OpenType functions: ordn, c2sc, smcp, case, frac, sinf, sups, numr, dnom, tnum, onum, lnum, pnum, dlig, liga, calt, salt (ss01).
