Arkibal Display - Typeface

 
 
Arkibal Display

Display version is a little different from Sans family, where "a" is the center of the whole
font. And letters "l, b, d, p, q and t" is the moved slight angle. The idea was to make two versions
with different selection of letters. It provides good dynamics and structure of display version.

The inspiration comes from some old documents and store signs from my great-grandfather's old gold
listfactoryfrom 1838. He delivered hits for many artists of that time, and various museums in Copenhagen.
I priority increases to make a mixture of the classic letter witha modern lift. Seems it was interesting to try to
reproduce some of the old characters and make a new font. Uppercase “G” was the first letter of the
startingpoint. G stands for in danish “Guldramme”, which means “Goldframe”. Arkibal is coming from an
almost old danish tradional name "Arkibald", only without "d".
