About the family


Henkei Grotesk is a contemporary sans serif built on structural clarity and restrained geometry. While grounded in the discipline of the grotesque tradition, it carries a subtle Eastern sensibility. Its curves are shaped with a quiet sense of movement, reminiscent of brush-drawn strokes, giving the forms a natural direction and internal rhythm. The result is measured yet expressive, composed yet alive. Developed as a versatile editorial tool, Henkei performs consistently across headlines, subheads, and extended reading contexts. The weight progression is controlled and stable, ensuring smooth hierarchy in layout systems. Beneath its rational proportions lies a gentle dynamism, where tension within the curves introduces elegance without disrupting neutrality. Its architectural quality emerges from its balance between structure and flow. The disciplined construction ensures clarity and legibility, while the directional curves introduce a sense of spatial movement. This makes Henkei particularly suited for architecture publications, spatial branding, cultural institutions, and design systems where precision and form must coexist. It communicates structure without rigidity, and elegance without excess. The character set supports essential Latin based languages and includes professional punctuation and symbols suited for publishing environments. Whether used in magazine layouts, branding systems, cultural publications, or contemporary visual identities, Henkei Grotesk delivers quiet authority with refined motion.

About New Yeast Foundry

New Yeast Foundry is an independent type foundry focused on disciplined experimentation and structural clarity. Rooted in modernist principles and refined through contemporary design systems, the foundry approaches type design as an architectural process - measured, deliberate, and built to endure. We design typefaces that prioritize function without sacrificing character. Each project is developed through testing across editorial, spatial, and digital environments, resulting in fonts that feel precise, controlled, and quietly expressive. Our work draws from Western typographic foundations while embracing cross-cultural influences, allowing structure and movement to coexist within a single system.
