A hardworking grotesque by Shiva Nallaperumal in the spirit of Bell Gothic, with truncated terminals and angled ascenders for clarity at small sizes.
About
A grotesque sans by Shiva Nallaperumal that draws on Bell Gothic and other anonymous, highly functional grotesques. Truncated terminals keep apertures open, angled ascenders differentiate I from l without serifs, stroke contrast protects counterforms and idiosyncratic figures clearly separate 3 from 8, 6 and 9. The design treats functionalism as both purpose and aesthetic, making it well suited to directories, ui, wayfinding, captions and editorial systems that need to work hard at small sizes.
Classification
Commercial Type describe Delegate as a hardworking sans serif celebrating Bell Gothic and anonymous functional grotesques, with truncated terminals, angled ascenders, stroke contrast and eccentric figures that solve legibility problems while keeping a distinct character.
