This distinctive, award-winning library of premium fonts provides brands and designers with a broad and reliable selection of typefaces for expressive typography in print and on screen.

Alisal is a calligraphically inspired serif typeface with its roots in 15th- and 16th-century Italian lettering and type. It is both free-flowing and angular, giving a sprightly lilt to a block of text. It’s a design that Matthew refined over a long time; so long, he says, that it began to feel like a historical revival of his own typeface.

There’s no arguing with the impact of a phonebook typeface, even if nobody consciously notices it. In the 1970s, when AT&amp;T was still “Ma Bell” and telephone directories were thick printed books on cheap, thin paper, the phone company commissioned Mergenthaler Linotype to produce a new typeface, to celebrate AT&amp;T’s 100th anniversary. The brief was to fit more characters on a line, and to be legible at very small size, in order to fit more entries on a page and thereby save on paper. The very features that make Bell Centennial extremely legible at its intended tiny sizes, such as the ink traps in sharp angles, have been used to good effect at very large sizes as well. They also make it a good choice for everyday needs such as readable name badges.
