Didier specimen from E162

A single-weight didone designed by Axel Pelletanche-Thévenart in 2015, available on request from the French micro-foundry E162.

About

Released in 2015 by Axel Pelletanche-Thévenart under E162, Didier is a didone serif with a 281-character Latin character set. The typeface is available to licence on request directly from the designer, with a printed specimen available via a dedicated print subdomain. The family currently offers one standard weight with no italic or condensed cuts.

Classification

The name and specimen text point clearly to a Didot-influenced design; the high contrast between thick and thin strokes and vertical stress characteristic of didone typefaces is implied by the French typographic tradition the foundry references.
