Basic Font Information
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Federant revives the Reklameschrift typeface Feder Antiqua by
|
|
|
|
|
Otto Ludwig Nägele (1911).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main challenge of designing a modern interpretation was to
|
|
|
|
|
equilibrate between applying visual corrections for overall
|
|
|
|
|
consistency and staying close to the original source.
|
|
|
|
|
In certain cases the historical authenticy was sacrificed
|
|
|
|
|
in favour of an even typographic color.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This project required research of historic type specimens
|
|
|
|
|
in search for the missing letterforms. The unsusual
|
|
|
|
|
interpretaion of the Yen currency symbol can be found
|
|
|
|
|
in typefaces of that period.
|
|
|
|

|
|
Designed by Olexa M.Volochay, Alexei Vanyashin for Cyreal.
