About Kessel 205 Font Family


Kessel 205 is inspired by the classic, geometric sans-serifs such as Futura, but has shallower ascenders and descenders for a more compact look, and features an art deco influence with sharp points at the apex of many characters, lowered crossbars and an oblique crossbar on the lower case e. It's a versatile, modern sans, highly legible as a text font and with a distinctive, elegant look as a display font at larger sizes. It includes old style non-aligning (lower case) numbers, both proportional and tabular as well as accented characters for Central European languages. The Kessel 205 family comprises of six weights and is closely related to Kessel 105.

These are not showy faces, but practical, hard-working text and display fonts. Occasionally I branch out into more experimental, display fonts, possibly as a result of my years as a graphic designer with a focus on identities and communications and the need to stand out from the crowd — in a good way.
