A few weeks ago we launched Lock, a superfamily⁠ designed by myself (@mashcreative ) and @dianaovezea . The four subfamilies — Serif Serif Stencil Sans and Sans Stencil — each feature six weights and include glyph alternates, arrows, and more.⁠ ⁠ Drawing inspiration from calligraphic strokes, the letter shapes have been carefully crafted to achieve a versatile and modern humanist design. The Serif is sharp and outspoken while the Sans is blunt and understated, with each version offering a playful stencil companion to complete the ensemble.⁠ ⁠ FREE type specimen book (designed by Astrid Stavro) and variable font is available on all Full Family purchases.⁠ ⁠ Explore the perfect fusion of tradition and contemporary style with Lock! ⁠ ⁠ Available to try, trial, and buy exclusively from @cotypefoundry - (Link in bio).⁠ Litho printed by @thefutureformat in Pantone red, blue and black ink on @fedrigoni.paper ⁠ Specimen book photography by @craeftstudio ⁠ ⁠ #typedesign #typeface #typography #font #fonts #serif #sansserif #typefacedesign #cotypefoundry #locktypeface #lockfont
