About the family


Scam is a discordantly eccentric geometric display face with exaggerated, alternating forms. Letters variate in extremes between bold and blacked-out and strictly linear, creating unpredictably unique letter pairings. Stylistically, Scam pushes the boundaries of type-as-image while retaining an acute legibility and refinement, greatly contrasting its aberrant nature. Features include: -Precision kerning -Expanded ligature set (89 unique ligatures, plus alternates) -Alternate characters (D, H, O, P, Q, R, 0, 6, 9, 8, _) -Alternate ligatures -Slashed zero -Full set of numerators/denominators -Automatic fraction feature (supports any fraction combination) -Extended language support (Latin-1 and Latin Extended-A) *Requires an application with OpenType and/or Unicode support.

About Reserves

Reserves is an independent type practice focused on a library of designs spanning structured, utilitarian forms and experimental, expressive styles. The collection includes condensed sans-serifs, modular stencils, geometric constructions, and idiosyncratic display faces, often shifting between clarity and graphic intensity. Some families emphasize versatility and restraint, while others explore unconventional rhythms and contrast. The library documents a formative period of independent exploration in typography.
