- Asgaard Typeface
A Danish-inspired signage typeface - Asgaard is based on extensive research into a unique Danish design phenomenon within typeface design and lettering of the 20. century. The intention was to create a distinctive contemporary and functional typeface while still incorporating traditional influences and features (such as the alternate character for ø with the horizontal bar, which is based on some old enamel signs).
To achieve great legibility the design paid much attention to features such as: large x-height, open counters, tiny serifs, slightly rounded corners, square terminals as well as inktraps.Asgaard was created during the one-week typeface design workshop tipoRenesansa in Trenta, Slovenia (February 2012). Special thanks to the workshop mentor Aljaž Vindiš for guidance and support.
(Asgaard is still in development)
