The Design

About Hupla Typeface Schrëftdesign a Schrëftmuster

Hupla entstécht als eng stylistesch Schrëftfamill, suergfälteg ausgeschafft als mechanesch Schrëft an engem präzis definéierte Gitter. Dës Designphilosophie erweidert hir Vielsäitegkeet, wat se zu enger idealer Wiel fir d'Uwendung a verschiddenen Gréissten mécht, mat engem nahtlosen Iwwergang tëschent Text- an Displayastellungen. Beräichert mat engem ëmfaassende Set vu OpenType-stylistische Featuren, gëtt Hupla méi wéi nëmmen eng Schrëft; et transforméiert sech an en dynamescht Tool fir kreativ Ausdrock.

Unique Properties: Hupla emerges as a stylistic font family, meticulously crafted as a mechanical font within a precisely defined grid. This design philosophy extends its versatility, making it an ideal choice for application at various sizes, seamlessly transitioning between text and display settings. Enriched with a comprehensive set of OpenType stylistic features, Hupla becomes more than just a typeface; it transforms into a dynamic tool for creative expression.
Dimensions & Packaging: The specimen dimensions are 210 x 290mm
Tags: Type design, Typeface, Specimen
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.
