Basic Font Information
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alegreya was chosen as one of 53 "Fonts of the Decade" at
|
||
|
|
the ATypI Letter2 competition in September 2011, and one
|
||
|
|
of the top 14 text type systems. It was also selected in
|
||
|
|
the 2nd Bienal Iberoamericana de Diseño, competition
|
||
|
|
held in Madrid in 2010.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alegreya is a typeface originally intended for literature.
|
||
|
|
Among its crowning characteristics, it conveys a dynamic
|
||
|
|
and varied rhythm which facilitates the reading of long
|
||
|
|
texts. Also, it provides freshness to the page while
|
||
|
|
referring to the calligraphic letter, not as a literal
|
||
|
|
interpretation, but rather in a contemporary typographic
|
||
|
|
language.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The italic has just as much care and attention to detail
|
||
|
|
in the design as the roman. The bold weights are strong,
|
||
|
|
and the Black weights are really experimental for
|
||
|
|
the genre. There is also a Small Caps sister family.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Not only does Alegreya provide great performance, but
|
||
|
|
also achieves a strong and harmonious text by means of
|
||
|
|
elements designed in an atmosphere of diversity.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Alegreya is a Unicode typeface family that supports languages
|
||
|
|
that use the Latin script and its variants, and could be
|
||
|
|
expanded to support other scripts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
More specifically, this release supports the following
|
||
|
|
Unicode ranges: Latin-1, Latin-2, Turkish, Baltic
