About Mentone Font Family


Mentone is a new general purpose typeface, an attempt at extending the line of the great sans-serifs of the previous century, Frutiger - Stone Sans - Myriad. The font has round corners and subtle chamfers, which are all but invisible at text sizes, but add an upbeat, irreverent expression at display sizes. The typeface is named after the beautiful bayside suburb of Melbourne, Australia, where the designer lives. This new version (2.01) was spaced and kerned by Igino Marini of iKern. The semibold cuts are now free!

About Paragraph

Paragraph is the foundry of Jan Schmoeger, who was fascinated by letterforms and type since his childhood (a school work experience in metal hand-typesetting probably the cause), and since 2008 concentrated mainly on typeface design. Rather than reviving or modifying existing types, he developed new typefaces from original geometries experimentally, combining deliberate design with accidental aesthetics.
