In its most general sense, the term ‘world’ refers to the totality of entities, to the whole of reality or to everything that is. The nature of the world has been conceptualized differently in different fields. Some conceptions see the world as unique while others talk of a ‘plurality of worlds’. Some treat the world as one simple object while others analyze the world as a complex made up of many parts. In scientific cosmology the world or universe is commonly defined as ’the totality of all space and time; all that is, has been, and will be’. Theories of modality, on the other hand, talk of possible worlds as complete and consistent ways how things could have been. Phenomenology, starting from the horizon of co-given objects present in the periphery of every experience, defines the world as the biggest horizon or the ‘horizon of all horizons’. In philosophy of mind, the world is commonly contrasted with the mind as that which is represented by the mind. Theology conceptualizes the world in relation to God, for example, as God’s creation, as identical to God or as the two being interdependent. In religions, there is often a tendency to downgrade the material or sensory world in favor of a spiritual world to be sought through religious practice. A comprehensive representation of the world and our place in it, as is commonly found in religions, is known as a worldview. Cosmogony is the field that studies the origin or creation of the world while eschatology refers to the science or doctrine of the last things or of the end of the world.

Design concept

Delvard is a low-contrast, somewhat wider sans serif that is extremely readable at smaller sizes, making it suitable for setting any kind of text, while its multiple alternate capitals are great for display purposes. Delvard draws from late 19th-century art nouveau posters, using the elevated crossbars, angled segments and sinuous curves associated with lettering of the period.

Regardless of character count, the Inside, Left, Outside and Right fonts will automatically adjust character weights to render an inward, leftward, outward or rightward moving word gradient as you type. Need more than one word gradient? Just press the spacebar to automatically begin another. Need to go from right to left? Just highlight the word and switch to the Left font. It’s that easy. Whether for posters, identities, film titles, billboards, shopfronts or anything in between, exceptional endeavours require exceptional fonts. Delvard Gradient answers that call.
