Design Concept
Irma Display is a simple and elegant capital-only typeface based on geometric forms. The round characters of Irma Display, such as O, C and G, have no overshoots (the degree to which the highest and lowest points exceed the flat baseline to achieve the optical effect of being the same size), which allows the setting of text with no space between the lines, as all letters are equally tall.
Typographic patterns
Irma provides different conditional letterforms, depending on whether characters occur at the beginning, middle or end of the word. Letters can have four different forms (initial, medial, final and isolated). The choice of these forms is controlled by a powerful OpenType layout feature, which allows the creation of typographic patterns using the negative spaces of the letterforms. Use it to create instant logos, wordmarks and powerful headlines.
Discretionary ligatures
Irma Display includes over 200 discretionary ligatures to make the setting of text even more compact and unique.
