Description
Robert is a modern twist of a classic. Named after Robert Beasley, the author of the first Clarendon typefaces, Robert takes inspiration from the chunky mechanical letters, created for the first time at the begin-ning of the 19th century for large display use. But look closely into the sharpness and carefully crafter curves and you’ll see that this is far from a historical revival. The expressive nature and the spirit of the Industrial Revolution are mixed with a hint of new technology and a powerful hu-man touch, to turn Robert into a rational multifunctional type family with authoritative Romans and expressive Italics in 7 weights.
Robert is also packed with all the extras that designers dream of: several sets of decorative numbers, arrows, hands, bullets, small caps, supply-ing even more tools for creative freedom and making the possibilities of its usage limitless.
