About Tacit Font Family


Tacit is the first typeface to be the creative outcome of a PhD thesis in graphic design. The work's main study had the aim of documenting design processes in an effort to externalise the tacit (experiential) knowledge of graphic designers. Initially the task was only to design several glyphs but the work resulted in a full typeface. Tacit is an elegant sans serif with a distinctive character and is legible at small and large point sizes.

About Fontar

The origins of Fontar is a graphic design research study that was a part of my PhD candidature at the Luleå University of Technology, Sweden. As a method to externalise graphic design knowledge, I documented my process during my work on a new typeface, from first sketches to the finished fonts. The result was the Tacit typeface, a sans serif typeface in two weights, Regular and Medium. Tacit is a clean and legible font, even at smaller sizes, suitable for both shorter and longer texts.
