I’ve been following the work of the very talented canadian designer Abi Huynh, and I have to say that every time a new piece land in his portfolio I am more and more impressed.
Arietta is my first serious text face, it is intended for short subject and non?fiction books, the family consists of a transitional roman with multiple text italics that provide modulating degrees of stylistic contrast from the roman. Arietta Book has a serious, unobtrusive and reserved tone while the three italic companions each produce a distinct character and textural density.
The process and specimen book shows the development and current status of the type family at the end of the Type and Media course, produced for the final examination.
