Black Foundry

Our Galien typeface gets an update with Cyrillic script addition. This is the perfect occasion to rediscover this modern serif whose design is inspired by the typography of the French Renaissance... Moreover, the Latin script also grows with Vietnamese glyphs and more diacritics. Galien will be the typeface of choice for setting highly readable texts as well as beautiful titles in projects where elegance and style are a must!

We are pleased to present Vesterbro Sans! Vesterbro Sans extends the concept of the Vesterbro (Serif) typeface into a new typographic genre. Available in 6 weights, roman and italic & two Variable Fonts... Thanks to the multinational team at Black[Foundry], Vesterbro Sans supports the Greek and Cyrillic scripts, just like Vesterbro. All our Vesterbro faces make typography for global communication effortless.

We are thrilled to have collaborated with Pixelis, branding agency, for the creation of a custom typeface for JOTT. On this occasion, Solenn Bordeau (Type Designer) and Gaëtan Baehr (Type Designer & Font Engineer) share with you the secrets of this typeface in video. How did the JOTT typeface come about? What is the use of having a custom typeface?

Co-founder of Black[Foundry], type designer and font engineer Jérémie Hornus likes both technical and design challenges. He's part of the super group that will explore automated kerning and spacing at ATypI Tech Talks 2022, Oct. 27–29. He will speak in particular about his approach for the tools we made for letter fitting assistance Black[Spacer] and Black[Kerner]. Tickets available, check the agenda.

We made a little webpage that allows you to navigate the huge character set by selecting Hangul Jamos. You can also drop any font that supports Hangul on the page to see and walk through its glyphs. Can become useful to understand the way syllables are made and check typeface design consistency, for example.
