F37® Nifty
Award: Graphite Pencil
Graphite Pencil / Type Design & Lettering / Typeface Family / 2024
F37® Nifty is a playful display typeface with a unique approach to counter forms, letter boundaries and italic possibilities.
Where does positive space end and negative space begin? Can type appear heavier the lighter it gets? Is it possible to create an illusion of contrast using mono-weight forms? Nifty explores these ideas and is defined by its experimental nature, yet it also respects and adheres to tried and tested typographic foundations – ensuring it remains familiar, legible and ultimately usable as a commercially released typeface.
