The Design
About Hupla Typeface Leturhönnun og letursýnishorn
Hupla kemur fram sem stílístuð leturfjölskylda, vandlega útfærð sem vélrænt letur innan nákvæmlega skilgreinds ristnets. Þessi hönnunarhugsun víkkar fjölhæfni þess og gerir það að kjörnu vali fyrir notkun í mismunandi stærðum, með hnökralausri umbreytingu milli brödtexta og sýningar. Auðgað með yfirgripsmiklu safni OpenType stíleiginleika verður Hupla meira en bara leturgerð; það umbreytist í kraftmikið verkfæri fyrir skapandi tjáningu.

- Production Technology
- Glyphs was used to create the Font family. The Type specimen book and box was printed as a limited run in offset digital, 6 color.
- Design Challenge
- The major challenge was to create a meticulously crafted mechanical font within a precisely defined grid, creating a contemporary visual language.
- Research
- Our research began with the origins of Swiss-type design, International Style, and Modernism of the Swiss Style, studying classical forms that could be expanded and adapted into new forms and shapes.
- Inspiration
- This Font family’s inspiration was to create a sleek and modern aesthetic with well-defined letterforms inspired by International, modernist, and Swiss styles. We decided that the typeface had to be constructed from straight lines and 45-degree corners, with the letter forms of even width, whereby spacing between words should always be related to the width of an individual character.
- Project Duration
- The font family was started in September 2023 and will be launched in Feburary 2024
- Operation Flow
- The font family will be launched as a retail font worldwide and used by international design firms.
