The Independent Newspaper Fonts
Award: Yellow Pencil
Yellow Pencil / Crafts for Design / Typefaces / 2014
We designed a compact suite of inter-connected fonts that share the same underlying structure. In addition to the three master sets – serif, sans and condensed – we also crafted a complimentary hairline display font designed specifically for headlines that formed the inspiration for the paper’s masthead. The typefaces were crafted separately from the masthead however, and feature wide flared serifs and ‘ND’ ligatures.
