20th century Italian type designer

A linear example of a black type suitable for close-up markings where reading efficiency and elegance in contrast are required. Designed by the Italian type designer Aldo Novarese for Reber R41, Divulga does not go unnoticed: very narrow eyes, very thin temples accompanied by exceptionally black temples give this typeface a unique personality. It finds a slight resemblance, though certainly not a derivation, in the fonts of the Bauhaus school, with which it shares a sense of cleanliness, clarity and geometry. It has very high visibility, making it ideal for headlines and slogans and other very specific uses. If you want to raise the tone of your voice, safe in the knowledge that you never lose elegance and originality.

Elite is part of the family of so-called &quot;written&quot; characters, i.e. not obtained from a geometric framework but with means - brushes - that allow greater imagination and freedom. It is an italics that can be combined with all characters that are not written or Gothic. Created by Aldo Novarese in 1969 for Fonderia Nebiolo in Turin, it is an elegant font that is read with pleasure and used with ease. As far as the letters are detached, the optical sensation of calligraphic continuity remains intact. Excessive contrast between threads and rods has been avoided to ensure long runs. The design is deliberately simple, so as not to condition the character to ephemeral fashions. Born to last over time, Elite is ideal for all those jobs in which too classic and severe characters can be replaced by lively but also sober writing (business cards, writing paper, various announcements, invitations, greetings, invitations , covers, title pages, etc.)

Equator provides a strong graphic effect thanks to the centered lines, with great smoothness and optical connection between the letters. The striking display style is suitable for brands, titles, and other original compositions.

Equator

A modern Roman-transitional font from Nebiolo: stylistically close to the Romans, but with a series of expedients that make it perfect for contemporary use. Thanks to painstaking work on chiaroscuro, graces and the relationship between letters, Novarese succeeded in combining aesthetic expression with functionality, creating a classic but highly readable font that is versatile and suitable for all types of printing. Released by Nebiolo in 1966, this small masterpiece of synthesis immediately found wide use in communication and advertising, proving to be a comprehensive response to the ever more pressing need to combine form and function in graphics and design.

Magister

The modern, graphic prestige version of the old wooden &#x27;stick&#x27; typefaces used for posters in the last century. In the compact &#x27;black&#x27; round series, this typeface finds wide applications for headlines, slogans, short announcements and takes on greater peremptoriness if white fields are left around it. Metropol has the voice of skyscrapers, of traffic, of the city that never sleeps. A true dive into modernity, with an unfailing reference to the origins that is the unmistakable mark of Novarese&#x27;s modus operandi - in his presentation, in fact, he defines it as a &#x27;textura of our time&#x27;, a revisitation in a contemporary key of the main family of characters of Gothic writing. Taken from Eurostile, it is the declared result of the designer&#x27;s collaboration with a team of graphic designers who have been supervising the StudioNebiolo&#x27;s Artistic Studio with the aim of relaunching the corporate image. Advertisements and headlines in newspapers and magazines are fascinated by this t ypeface, which, from the height of its form, was created specifically to be heard.

Belonging to the neoclassical, Bodonian style, Orbital is a contemporary expression of a classical form. Suitable for applications where new sensations are required in reading through stable and decorative forms. A Bodonian in interstellar space: Orbital, born in 1987, is an unprecedented character. Close to the Helvetica family but softer, it presents the hallmarks of careful craftsmanship in its design and stencil details. Precisely because of this distinctly modern attitude with a classic hint, we could say that of the entire collection it is the one that most reveals Novarese&#x27;s spirit and hand. The particularly high body height gives it a good clarity of reading. Particular and intelligent, it lends itself to all-round use, from headline to body copy. Reber offers it in regular, bold, italic and bold italic. Because inspiration is never subject to gravity.

Orbital

Recta was born in 1959 from the pen of Aldo Novarese for the Nebiolo Fonderia of Turin and is considered one of the first contributions of the great Italian type designer to the massive wave of the European sans serif genre in full explosion in that half of the 20th century.Initially published just a year after the release of the Swiss Neue Haas Grotesk and the French Univers, it rode the wave of enormous success of the &quot;sans serif&quot; genre, becoming the Italian Helvetica par excellence.The softness of the line with an exquisitely &quot;humanistic&quot; touch in contrast with the clear shapes typical of the grotesk genre are the distinctive characteristics of Recta, originally conceived in countless variations that were never created due to the unsustainable cost it would have entailed as a font for traditional printing.

“It is the most discussed and imitated font in the international graphic field. It opened new avenues in the simplification of the future alphabetic sign. Some letters, despite being halved, are very legible in the graphic context. It was created to compose not only imaginative phrases but also: trademarks, acronyms, signs, insignia.” —Aldo NovareseFor this new digital version of Stop for R41, it was important to draw inspiration from the dry transfer type they originally manufactured. This new version of Stop is based on the films prepared for R41’s version, but then given many more characters that extend the concept, including a wide variety of accented characters, symbols, and letters for the Cyrillic and Greek alphabets. R41 Stop is also filled with OpenType-enabled alternates for many of its letters, based on adaptations made over the years by designers and signmakers worldwide.

Belonging to the same family as Metropol, Unipol&#x27;s contoured shape gives it lightness and elegance. Used in compositions with Metropol it achieves interesting graphic results. It was born alongside Metropol, a twin font but with a white soul: Unipol gets rid of the black ink fillings and keeps only the outlines of the other, even if - as happens with all twins - the features are not entirely identical. It is the yang of the couple: tall and powerful, with the sober elegance of subtraction.
