Short Films is an all-new-styled family, which kind of looks like Art Deco Style.

Wide opened counters and softly rounded bowls create a new feeling – Retro but futuristic, geometric but humanistic.
Exquisite contrast between thin and bold parts of glyphs make mixed feeling – Pop and feminine, formal and casual, strong and soft.

The most distinctive feature is a coexistence of decorativeness and Readability.
This coexistence expands the range of font usage. You can use this font for not only titling but also body-text.

Short Films consists of 6 weights and their matching Italics for a wide range of usages.
Further, Short Films supports international Latin languages and basic Cyrillic languages including Basic Latin, Western Europe, Central and South-Eastern Europe. Also, Short Films covers Mac Roman, Windows1252, Adobe1 to 3. This wide range of international characters expands the capability of your works.

The titles and credits from the 1960 French film “Le Passage Du Rhin” (English release title: “Tomorrow is My Turn”)” are hand made in a free form bold alphabet resembling both cut paper and quickly sketched lettering.

This avant garde style inspired the digital type revival, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.

A few years ago I’ve discovered the work of one of the most prolific typeface designers of the Bruce type Foundry in NYC during late nineteenth century. Browsing Julius Herriet’s work I found a very unique kind of ligatures in his patented “Old Style Ornamented” type design. Some letters were designed with a little top tail that allowed them to connect to each other. After that, I found that he also designed a single italic weight of the same font 7 years later.

Since the beginning of the Opentype days I’ve been deeply obsessed with exploring different ways to build ligatures, so that lead me up to this point where I felt the need to create “Plethora”, this new font inspired by Herriet’s work. Extrapolating weights, adding variable technology and playing with additional interconnected letters and alternates. Definitely, Plethora means a large or excessive amount of something, and this font tries to bring back this abundance of details two centuries later. Available in 9 weights, from roman to italic, and also as variable format, “Plethora” supports plenty of latin languages and is a perfect choice for today’s design tides.

Hand lettering from the title credits for the 1950 film “All about Eve” were the inspiration for Evening Event JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.

The font’s name is an (unintended) double-homage to the film’s title, for the first part of both words include “Eve”.

Are you throwing a party, growing eco friendly potatoes or having a babyshower?
Is so - go ahead and give Smartburst a try for the design. The friendly and rounded edges makes the letters look soft and legible.
I’ve added 5 different versions of each letter, and they automatically cycle as you type. Or, you can choose them individually from the glyph menu.

In the glyph palette you will also find ornaments that can be used for underlining, and to combine and enhance your text.

Yorkie has significant contrasts in line thickness and triangular line terminals that are not unlike serifs, placing it somewhere between a Grotesque and Serif type family.  The contrast between the features of a humanist Grotesque and an Antiqua gives the characters of Yorkie their distinctive charm and is the distinguishing attribute of this contemporary type family.

Thanks to a generous x-height and its open counters, Yorkie is also highly legible in small point sizes.
