À propos de la famille


Meet Pygmalion, a linguist's dream!

Pygmalion is a modern/didone text family in the great tradition of squarish text families like Walbaum, Ibis, and Georgia. It has a high x-height and a great balance of legibility and readability.

Plus, it supports Western and Central European character sets, a full Cyrillic character set, Monotonic and Polytonic Greek, and the International Phonetic Alphabet. That makes it superlative in his usefulness and versatility!

When searching for a didone typeface, it's often a struggle between blackness/legibility and stylishness/contrast. this is especially true of squarish didones, which number less than their round counterparts. Pygmalion is an excellent balance between the two — clean and striking, good for uses from text to heading, and at home in print and on screen.

Pygmalion

À propos The Ampersand Forest

The Ampersand Forest is DC Scarpelli. And probably vice versa. I am a wholly inveterate Type Nerd. I’ve been in love with letterforms my whole life, and, for 16 years, I taught type history, type design, and typography as a college professor. Type is voice, and I love giving people a voice. A variety of voices, actually, so that they can choose whichever one is best for them for a particular context. And I don’t just mean designers, either! Type’s for everyone, and every typeface has a purpose and context.For me, deliciousness—flavor—is key. Not all type has to be “good type,” whatever that means. It should be designed with thought and care and craft. It should be supremely usable. But it should aim beyond usability toward (trust me: this is the right word) yumminess.
