About Mir Font Family


Мир is Mir. The Russian word Мир (Mir) means both World and Peace. The rendezvous of the two terms seems quite unique and utopistic today, but it is comforting to see that it was natural at some time deep down in Russian history. Bits of both meanings were going through my mind while I was designing this typeface. Mir’s character set is multiscript – Latin, Cyrillic and Greek – and extends to many parts of the linguistic world. In fact it covers more than 100 languages. Stylistic consistency between the language systems make typographic border crossings painless even where national borders are still closely guarded. And in regions where mathematics, physics or chemistry are to be expressed, a rich set of OpenType features lets Mir master also these situations. Serious things are best be said in a relaxed, unpretentious way. So Mir doesn’t put on a show. Mir has authority without being authoritarian, it is serious but not stern. It can explain difficult things and stay calm and down to earth at the same time. Mir Medium has another useful feature: It can be freely downloaded and used by anybody anywhere. You can test the Mir Family with free Mir Medium and get more styles when you need them. @juliasys

About Juliasys

Juliasys Type Studio’s center of gravity is just beside the Kulturbrauerei in Berlin’s Prenzlauer Berg. It was founded by Julia Sysmäläinen and partners in 2007. What are we doing there? Hard working in type & identity design, always with a pinch of humour. We create fonts, icons and complete visual identities, do custom and retail projects, and work with partners in different countries. Some of our custom design clients are Beiersdorf Hamburg, Bosch Stuttgart, Freshbooks Toronto, Liebherr Germany, Monotype Germany, Mars and Waitrose London, Remes & Packart Helsinki and Harpers Publishers New York. Widely known are our true-to-life script fonts of the handwriting of authors and artists - such as Franz Kafka, Emily Dickinson, Laura Ingalls Wilder and Jean Sibelius.
