Typeface development
Custom type comes in many forms and can be built to any budget. Commissioning an original typeface enables you to create a truly unique identity tailored completely to your brand. You have control over every aspect of the design, such as the range of weights, widths, languages, and optical sizes. Whether the starting point is a blank slate, a logo, a sketch of a few letters, or an existing font, our skilled type designers and technicians can build in any requirement to develop a flexible, high-performance, future-proof typeface that carries your typographic identity across all potential platforms.
The shape and tone of the characters are just the beginning. After the initial design phase, spacing and kerning are finalized and rich OpenType features built to create a fully-functioning, flexible family of fonts. A custom typeface will prove to be an invaluable asset to your brand, becoming a typographic representation of its identity. The diversity and versatility of Type Network’s foundry partners guarantees that we have the right team to develop your custom typeface.
