About the family


Introducing TT Modernoir version 2.000! We've updated this experimental font, adding new glyphs, features, and alternates.

TT Modernoir is a display sans serif with dynamic proportions. In this font, the fluid lines and elegant forms of Art Nouveau are combined with the rhythm and improvisational freedom of jazz. During its creation, we were inspired by 20th-century French typography, as well as the aesthetic of film noir, which is reflected in the typeface's name.

The defining features of TT Modernoir are the significant difference in proportions between square and oval characters: the square characters are very narrow, while the oval ones, in contrast, are very wide. Curved legs lend the font a sense of refinement, while dynamic swirls create a sense of musical rhythm and movement.

A stylistic set with narrow proportions for square and oval characters allows for a more even texture in typesetting. In contrast, a set with underlined characters will increase the display quality where needed. The typeface also includes a so-called "curly set" with swirls in the 'S' and 'Z' characters and curved legs on characters like 'R' and 'Я'.

A small set of icons is included to diversify your designs, featuring distinctive black cats, arrows with heart-shaped tips, and musical notes. Useful features and a variable font, which changes along the weight axis, provide the flexibility to tailor the typeface for various tasks.

In the updated version, we have significantly expanded the character set. Most importantly, we've added a full lowercase set (the small capital letterforms from the previous version can now be found in a small capital set). This greatly expands the typeface's functionality: whereas TT Modernoir was previously a title font with only uppercase forms, it now features a complete lowercase set. We also drew numerals and currency symbols for the minuscule and minuscule tabular figures. Additionally, we've added new OpenType features and stylistic sets. Specifically, more conventional alternate forms for triangular characters (Vv, Ww, y) and more decorative forms for 'a' and 'g'. These allow you to vary the font's level of decorative complexity and display character.

TT Modernoir works best at large point sizes. It is perfectly suited for event posters, signage, packaging design, magazine and book covers, as well as for branding and logos.

TT Modernoir features:

  • 6 styles: 5 uprights and 1 variable font

  • 1,445 glyphs per style

  • 38 OpenType features

  • Support for over 230 languages

    Add sophistication and romance to your design with TT Modernoir!
