About Byington Font Family


Byington stands as a typographic bridge between ancient Rome and the modern world, offering a bold reinterpretation of classical letterforms for contemporary designers. This font family draws its inspiration from the majestic inscriptions adorning Trajan’s Column, yet it doesn’t merely replicate—it reinvents.

The uppercase characters of Byington pay homage to their imperial Roman ancestors, but with a crucial twist. Gone are the delicate nuances of stone-carved letters, replaced by robust serifs and sharp transitional curves that command attention in today’s high-definition landscapes. These capitals stand proud and resolute, ready to make their mark in video productions, digital interfaces, and anywhere else that demands typographic gravitas. What sets Byington apart is its innovative approach to lowercase letters—a feature absent from the original Trajan inscriptions. Here, the typeface draws inspiration from the refined forms of Sabon and Garamond, creating a lowercase set that complements the authoritative uppercase without being overshadowed. This seamless integration results in a typeface that’s as comfortable crafting elegant body text as it is proclaiming headlines.

Available in Regular, Italic, and Bold, Byington offers the versatility required by modern designers. Each style maintains the typeface’s core essence while providing nuanced options for hierarchy and emphasis. The result is a font family that can carry an entire brand identity, from the grandeur of logos to the subtlety of fine print. Byington’s linguistic reach is as expansive as its design ambitions. Supporting a vast array of Latin-based European writing systems, it speaks fluently in tongues from Albanian to Zulu. This extensive language support ensures that Byington can convey its timeless elegance across cultural and linguistic boundaries, making it a truly global typeface.

Choose Byington when you need typography that doesn’t just nod to history but strides confidently into the future. It’s for designers who understand that true timelessness comes not from rigid adherence to tradition, but from respectful evolution. With Byington, every project becomes an opportunity to carve new stories in the enduring stone of typographic excellence.
