#13 Mont Blanc by Fontfabric
Q1: Where did the idea for the typeface come from? Did you set out to address a specific use or suite of the application? Was this a design you’d had in mind for a while?
Ans: I got involved with the Mont Blanc project when the geometric giant, Mont family, was about to be expanded with an independent text companion. It was up to me to make the right design decisions and adjust its technical specifications without losing the distinct character of the original design.
Q2: What is the one or two most important things graphic communicators should know about the typeface, or how will the family of fonts help them create better design?
Ans: Mont Blanc is a perfect match for its display counterpart. It features a more subtle characterization while retaining the geometric elegance of the family. Effortless legibility was accomplished by adjusting the sharp details of the letters and further balancing the x-height and the contrast of the letterforms.
