NEW RELEASE
Abril is here!

The new design by Burian and Scaglione is conceived specifically for intensive editorial use, whether it is in newspapers, magazines or digital media. The titling weights, based on a contemporary revamp of classic Didone styles, display both neutrality and strong presence on the page, attracting the reader's attention by good color, high contrast and meassured curve tension. Abril Text maintains consistency with the headline styles but the letter forms were engineered from scratch to achieve a color, texture and overall width that allow using the font comfortably in the most challenging environments for continuous reading, such as newspapers, magazines and books. The core weights of Abril Text are manually hinted to improve performance on web sites and electronic publications.

SNEAK PEEK
Soleil, the new side of a geometric sans

Still just a sneak preview, but this wonderful sunny typeface is indeed almost ready. Only the last final touches are being applied now to guarantee Soleil's performance in a wide range of applications, from wayfinding to editorial design. Designed by the talented Austrian national Wolfgang Homola, Soleil is an innovative and fresh geometric sans serif that stands out among its peers. While its letter shapes take advantage of concepts of geometrical construction to inspire their appearance, it is its careful design process and attention to legibility that provide fluidity and cohesiveness to the typeface.
