[bkgpr] Download Benguiat Caslon fonts from House Industries

Benguiat Caslon


Designed to be set in big, large and huge sizes in classic TNT (tight-not-touching) style, Benguiat Caslon is dynamite for a wide range of display demands. We also included outline and drop-shadow versions as well as numerous swash caps, ligatures, contextual alternates and automatically-shifting punctuation.

Ed Benguiat originally designed this alphabet for the Photo-Lettering library during his tenure as the legendary type house’s art director. When we purchased Photo-Lettering in 2003, one of the first things we did was start picking some of our favorite films to digitize as fonts. Photo-Lettering partner Christian Schwartz chose this expressive serif specimen for its high contrast strokes that stand up to the most vigorous display typography demands without withering against pesky design limitations like screen resolution, ink spread and dot gain.

FEATURES:

  • Alternate characters, ligatures and contextual substitutions add an unexpected flair to words and phrases.
  • We also provided a drop shadow to add depth and dimension.
  • Shifting punctuation marks take care of those optical tricks so you don't have to.
  • A delicately expressive outline version adds color even in black and white.

BENGUIAT CASLON CREDITS:

  • Typeface Design: Ed Benguiat
  • Typeface Digitization: Christian Schwartz, Bas Smidt
  • Typeface Production: Ben Kiel, Jason Campbell


Like all good subversives, House Industries hides in plain sight while amplifying the look, feel and style of the world’s most interesting brands, products and people. Based in Delaware, visually influencing the world.

Download FF Kaytek Sans Fonts Family From FontFont

Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 2 Download Now Server 3 Kaytek™ Sans is a fresh take on the correspondence typefaces of the 90s - which were originally designed for the demands of office environments. Just like its predecessors, this text typeface is robust and hard-working - meaning it works well in challenging design or printing environments - but it’s not without personality. Look closer at the lowercase g and a, especially in the italic, and you can see some unexpected elements of subversiveness within the design.  This blend of sturdiness and quirkiness means it’s just as relevant for information-heavy projects, such as annual reports, as it is in more expressive environments. Although first and foremost designed for text, Kaytek Sans’ details shine through in its heavier weights and larger sizes, meaning it also has display potential.  Every style of the typeface takes up exactly the same amount of space, thanks to the way Radek Łukasiewicz created the design. ...

Download Syphon Fonts Family From Indian Type Foundry

Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 3 Download Now Server 2 Syphon is a family of sans serif fonts designed in the neo-grotesk style. It also includes a little kick, separating it from other typefaces in that genre: its diagonal letters feature stark contrast. The diagonals that are typically written with thin strokes in classic serif typefaces maintain thin strokes in Syphon as well, even in the family’s lightest weights. Speaking of weight, Syphon features ten font styles spread across five weights; these range from Thin through Bold. Every weight has both an upright font and an italic on offer. The italic fonts in Syphon are designed in the ‘oblique’ style. The fonts feature a tall x-height. Ascenders rise slightly above the tops of the capital letters, and the the numerals are slightly shorter than the uppercase letters’ height. Lines of text in Sypho...

Download Schotis Text Font Family From Huy!Fonts

Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 3 Download Now Server 2 Schotis Text is a workhorse typeface designed for perfect reading on running texts. Its design is based in Scotch Roman 19th-century style but designed from scratch, with a more contemporary and not nostalgic look. It has seven weights plus matching italics, with 1100 glyphs per font, with a very extended character set for Latin based languages as well as Vietnamese, and shows all its potential with OpenType-savvy applications. Every font includes small caps, ligatures, old-style, lining, proportional and tabular figures, superscript, subscript, numerators, denominators, and fractions. The Scotch Romans were one of the most used letters during the 19th and early 20th century, but they don’t have their own place in the main typographical classifications. They appeared at the beginning of the 19th c...
