Über die Familie


Aiming to distil the overall gesture, flavour and intention of wood type, Dries Wiewauters’ Cru, removes the historic limitations of the medium to breathe new life into a classic.

Manufacturing limitations historically drove certain letter forms definition. Wood type processes limited the inside radius or changes in stroke direction to be a minimum thickness of the router piece, thus forcing restraints that were reflected in nuanced and at points, cru(de) output.

In English, Cru can be defined as a French vineyard producing wine grapes, especially one formally graded as to the quality of its annual production. However the Dutch meaning is more layered. A Cru person is painfully candid and sincere. A Cru form is rough. A Cru statement can be rude or excessive. Cru food can be unsalted. Reflecting the dual definitions of refinement vs roughness, as a typeface Cru aims to be, and can be, many things at once.

Traversing from X Condensed through X Expanded with matching italics, Cru gives a unique take on an old favourite. Giving users the most flavour with the least effort, akin to the simple pleasures of the best comfort food.
