About Terfens Contrast Font Family

Terfens draws influence from chancery scripts, updating it for the twenty-first century. Terfens Contrast is derived from Terfens' DNA and retains its humanist tone. It’s tall x-height gives it a friendly but not informal feel.

With Terfen Contrast, calligraphy-inspired letterforms are rendered with a high contrast nib, lending raw vitality and expressivity. This juxtaposition gives the letters a sense of firmness and energy, but also of heavenly, delicate beauty.

Terfens is a full-service branding and packaging solution, containing a lot of personality, combining the passion of a broad nib pen with the beauty of a brush. Terfens is a "workhorse typeface" comprising 48 typefaces in three widths and eight weights. There are ligatures and swashes in all weights, as well as support for more than 72 languages. Another powerful typeface to add to your collection of eye-catching fonts.

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.
