A Western Union telegram from 1951 provided the typographic inspiration for Message by Wire JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions. Unlike other available type fonts which emulate the ink ribbon-struck printed characters from the teletype machines, this version was redrawn to celebrate the actual type design itself. The typeface letter spacing has been equalized so that when in use, it looks much like the printed output of an old telegram messsage.

An image of a vintage metal stencil for the French wine region Côteaux du Tricastin [now Grignan-Les Adhemar] served as the inspiration for Wine Vat Stencil JNL. This condensed sans serif design is available in both regular and oblique versions.

Amusement Ride Stencil JNL is based on a hand-cut paper stencil advising the riders to "Hold Onto Your Hats - Don't Stand Up - Let's Go Again!" Available in both regular and oblique versions.

WineGrape uses the following OpenType features to set up to three different color layers: - Small Caps / changing direction - Superscript/Superior (Grapes) - Subscript/Inferior (Leafs)

Blunt is a refreshing new bold headline typeface, designed to be an alternative to overused headline typefaces such as Impact. Blunt is more than just a one-trick-pony though, but includes 4 weights (Condensed - Wide) each with matching italics. This gives Blunt a lot more versatility when it comes to headline use. Try Blunt today and shout your most important messages with boldness!

Refracta is the work of British designer Martin Wait, a simple, condensed italic sans serif capital alphabet. The letterforms were designed with a shadow effect for extra impact. Refracta is ideal for a wide variety of applications.

The Vtg Stencil fonts from astype are based on real world stencils from several countries. The Italian stencils that I chose as a model for this font are roughly based on classic French stencil letters. Please compare the figures (numbers) with their French counterparts. However, the Italian stencils are made with a different production technique. The design of the letters is clearly not punch-cut into the plates, maybe they are drilled, milled or etched. Details such as the serifs look bold and clumsy, and when using the stencils as they are meant, with viscous sign paint, smaller details easily fade away. So I took my freedom to design a font close to the original design but adding several typographic tweaks to let it shine, hoping to get closer to the intended design idea of these Italian stencils. Enjoy the vintage!

A modern geometric typeface evolved from a systematic grid. The consistency of form lends itself to a wide variety of applications and used at large scale creates a powerful impact. Also the characters have compact widths allowing for a great economy of space across layouts. Details include 4 weights, a complete character set, manually edited kerning and Euro symbol.
