A new variable font that explores the attributes of a family with extremely contrasting opinions. Seamlessly shifting from Horizontal to Vertical stress, this double-axis
variable font lets you dial in your desired level of funk.
You can also choose from 3 predefined sub-families: Standard, Mid, Inverse.
Each sub-family includes 6 weights ranging from Light to Black with Italics in the works and coming soon.

You look awfully familiar: Sway started out as a lettering exercise that eventually became a typeface called Obscene. As the font developed I felt the name choice could be somewhat problematic thus Sway was born.
Inside Out : Outside In
Sway applied just as much focus to the interior contours or counter shapes in the forms.
The Mid Style was also of key importance for how the exterior shapes were developed.

I have a bit of an obsession with (Reverse) Horizontal Contrast typefaces.
The PS.Type Library contains a few - Hatch + Hoss. I like to dabble with those slightly-off beat letterforms. Sway allowed me to explore how the transition from a traditional vertical stress design shifted to a high-contrast horizontal stress.

Stylistic Alternates
Key glyphs were designed with alternate forms to add variety and offer change in tone.
