About Topaz Font Family


Part of the Shades collection of two-color fonts, Topaz is an inline face that’s both suave and resolute.

The Topaz typeface was designed by Jonathan Hoefler in 1997. A decorative variation of Hoefler’s Ideal Sans typeface (1991), Topaz is an inline typeface that unusually dislocates its white and black contours, to create an energetic rhythm of thin and thick strokes. A ‘chromatic’ typeface, Topaz includes the two styles Background and Inline, designed to be set in different colors and superimposed in register.

From the desk of the designer:

“Inlines” are black typefaces with white highlights, and “Outlines” are white typefaces with black borders. The typographic scholar R. S. Hutchings noted that “it is often difficult, if not actually impossible, to distinguish between them.” Topaz is our attempt to further blur the distinction: its sinuous curves and careful asymmetries, together with its off-center highlights, yield a typeface which is simultaneously an inline, and outline, and a dimensional letter.
