Typotheque
Design concept
Based on a skeleton of Roman inscriptional capitals, History includes 21 layers inspired by the evolution of typography. These 21 independent typefaces share widths and other metric information so that they can be recombined. Thus History has the potential to generate thousands of different unique styles. History is available as a collection of 21 OpenType fonts that can be used just as any other fonts, and also as part of the layering software History Remixer.
Authors
Conceived and designed by Peter Biľak. With help of Eike Dingler, Ján Filípek, Ondrej Jób and Ashfaq Niazi.
History Remixer
To help control the 21 layers of the History typeface, we offer the History Remixer online application. Instead of entering text separately for each layer, you enter it only once, after which you can adjust the layers’ colour, visibility, opacity, etc. History Remixer then generates a high resolution PDF.
