ABOUT THE FONT:
"NASLOF" is a new beautiful and vibrant font family consisted of three styles: Regular, Wire, and Color. For now, it's all caps font supporting Latin and Cyrillic.
The font name is an informal variant of the Serbian word for headline (naslov), which indicates its intended display purpose. This font is perfect to instantly draw attention to a message you want to be seen and remembered. Its bold and very unique visual tone will emphasize your ideas in a lively and optimistic way. You should definitely try it on your social media visuals.
As shown in the specimen, its bold and juicy character is convenient for various graphic design usages like banners, ads, cover images, brochures, logo, packaging, business cards, and more. It works well on printed material and looks good on-screen.
ABOUT THE CONCEPT:
The idea for Naslof started from the color version. Actually, this is just one of the 14 color font concepts that I developed two years ago. Only two most extreme of them are turned into actual fonts so far—Olcino and Naslof.
Olcino is intentionally the "most illogical" one. It examines how far we can go with adding a visual/emotional message to the basic letterforms while still keeping them quite legible. Naslof goes in the counter-direction: to apply colors in the cleanest and most logical way that is immanent to the outlines of their letterforms. That's why those letterforms (in the "regular" version, which was the base for color stylization) are drawn so they can be easily decomposed to basic geometry shapes later.
Each segment has one of three solid colors from the palette. As a final step, a black linear frame is added, which clearly differentiates segments and ensures the colors are visible over any background. I would describe color palette as soft pop art, while the black frame gives the font a bit of art deco look (especially when presented without the colors in the "wire" style).
