Runestone
Runestone is a bold font derived from ancient Runic alphabets carved into standing stones. It also evokes the style of engraved Greek and Phoenician lettering. An additional Small Caps version is included in the download.
New Old English
New Old English was prompted by two Victorian coins, the mid nineteenth century gothic crown and gothic florin, which featured a gothic script lowercase with quite modern looking, short ascenders and descenders enabling it to fit snugly around the queen’s head or heraldic motif. With thicker hairline strokes than normal Old English, a less sharp, warmer feel than lettering scripted with a pen, and circular instead of rhombic punctuation, this font is an attempt to capture the round-cornered softness of the die-struck lowercase blackletter. To increase harmony and homogeneity between the cases, the uppercase is narrower and simpler than is customary, without the excessive width or antiquated flamboyance of the traditional blackletter. It might even allow text set in capitals to look acceptable.
Gill New Antique
In addition to the Gill New Antique family (Regular, Bold, Italic and Bold Italic), two new weights, Medium and Semibold, are now available. Based on the Roman typefaces of Eric Gill – Perpetua, Joanna, and the hitherto neglected Solus. A tiny portion of Gill Sans, a few extraneous influences too… is this the undiscovered second sans?
Soft Sans
Soft Sans is a modern sans serif family of fonts, businesslike and classic grotesque in origin, but made friendlier and less austere by the addition of rounded outer corners. Soft Sans is designed for clarity and legibility. The fonts have a healthily large x-height, handwritten forms of a and g, and distinct characters such as a barred uppercase i and a curved foot on the lowercase L.
Frank Bellamy
An all capitals family based on the hand lettering of English artist, Frank Bellamy, most famous for his comic art for Eagle and TV21, and his Dr Who illustrations for Radio Times. The uppercase characters are the wider and heavier of the scans, and the lowercase are narrower and lighter letters. The Regular, Bold, Italic and Bold Italic are all supplied.
Blundell Sans
Blundell Sans is a type-hybrid that combines the precision and power of a sans serif with the elegance and humanism of a script. A resolutely upright font with a strong diagonal thrust.
