ABC Ikarus specimen from Dinamo Typefaces

A humanist wayfinding double-family with a monolinear text cut and high-contrast Flair and Contrast companions across three widths and eight weights.

About

A humanist double-family by Dinamo's Fabian Harb, Erkin Karamemet and Johannes Breyer, rooted in wayfinding. One side runs as a sturdy, monolinear text design, the other as an articulate, high-contrast Flair and Contrast companion for headlines. Open terminals and clearly distinctive letterforms are tuned for distance reading, challenging light and the smallest sizes. Three widths (Condensed, Normal, Extended) carry eight weights per subfamily with matching italics, and a variable font axis ties everything together for seamless movement between extremes.

Classification

Dinamo describes Ikarus as a humanist double-family rooted in wayfinding, with a sturdy monolinear text design alongside an articulate, high-contrast Flair and Contrast companion for headlines and display, optimised for distance reading and small sizes.
