Here are some preview examples of three new families which will shortly appear on Myfonts.com
Jonquin
Firstly, here’s Jonquin, inspired by a hand lettered First World War recruiting poster. It’s a family of three faces for display work and headings designed to be used readily as an ‘All-Capitals’ face as well as in upper and lower case format. Regular and bold weights are offered, as well as an even more decorative incised form. The whole family is ideally suited for poster and advertising work, as well as book and record covers and period themed signage.
Luscombe
Luscombe is a boisterous and lively display face, recalling the shaded and outlined faced much beloved of 1920s poster and advertising artists, while offering a regularity of outline that those faces often did not achieve. It’s ideal for poster and display work, or for signage with a subtle period feel. Mix the two faces to add emphasis where it’s needed.
Zenia
Finally, here’s a reminder of Zenia, about which we have written previously. Zenia, offered in regular and bold weights is a homage to the streamline era of the later 1930s. It’s a distinctive display family, glyphic yet still intuitive and easy to read. Use it anywhere you want that 30′s streamlined feel, or perhaps in science fiction inspired work particularly those that have a ‘past inspired future’ feel…
