Description
A typeface rooted in humanist sans-serif typefaces such as Rotis, Scala Sans and Gill Sans. Albion was developed from 8x8" sketches and was refined until each character became finely shaped. Then I traced the sketches with Illustrator. The capitals have classic Roman proportions, while the lower-cases show geometric tendencies tempered with humanism to increase warmth and legibility.
