About
Designed by Celia Yew out of Singapore's Death of Typography collective, Nightingale is a display serif built around an oblique axis that gives the letterforms a rhythmic, expressive quality. Tapered serifs and teardrop terminals soften the overall feel, pulling it towards editorial and decorative applications rather than continuous text. Released under the OFL, it is free to download and use for both commercial and non-commercial projects.
Classification
