About Mandrel Font Family

From the realm of insigne, a new family has risen. By name, Mandrel. Courtly in character and elegant in appearance, the face finds great favor among those with whom it seeks audience. With confident air, Mandrel carries itself gracefully before each pair of eyes, never faltering or stumbling in its refined step. But while dressed with gentility, this elegant family is not faint of heart when challenged. Crafted well for high-impact resistance, Mandrel steps boldly and prominently into the arena of the reader’s eye, boasting its tall x-heights, high contrast, confident bends, and sharp serifs. Skillfully, it wields its sharp serif endings, cutting swiftly through opponents’ crude clutter, which fights for the reader’s attention. From Thin to Black, nine weights and their matching italics make up this noble family. Mandrel furthermore includes an abundant treasury of OpenType variables to adorn your text. Ligatures, old-style figures, and stylistic sets are available to accompany the family’s 500 glyphs and its support for more than 70 languages. Raise your cup to this new Mandrel! With strong serifs and high contrast, you’ll find this champion ready to take up your challenge in many a test ahead.

About insigne

“Type is very much like music,” says Jeremy Dooley. “It is linear, and the notes or phrases have to fit the theme or song.” Jeremy, owner of the one-man foundry, insigne, is a self-taught type designer and a true self-made success story. His label is home to over a hundred font families, many of which have seen great success. Aviano has made our Best of the Year list not just once, but twice and has been featured in Hollywood blockbusters. You may have noticed various iterations of Aviano in Wall Street, Harry Potter, and Thor, and it was used for the branding of Robin Hood. Jeremy considers type to be the foundation of advanced visual communication. One form of communication that the Chattanooga-based designer is drawn to is branding. In 2011, Jeremy, took on the enormous project of coming up with a typeface that would communicate the tone and feeling of his hometown; a font that would effectively brand the city. In 2013, the result, Chatype, was named the official typeface of Chattanooga TN. “Every city needs a brand,” he says, “as every city needs to highlight its own distinctive offerings.” Like many designers, his creations are often the result of his interests. “I especially like seeing my typefaces in movies, on luxury packaging, and for technology companies,” he says. “These are interests of mine, and I often design fonts with those specific applications in mind. It’s very interesting to me that I frequently see fonts used in exactly the way I originally envisioned.” Since he began selling his first font on MyFonts in 2004, the man who will tell anyone who asks, “I’m not really from anywhere,” has continuously drawn inspiration from his many experiences gained from living all over the globe.
