Faire Type · Maxime Gau · 2023
A three-family geometric rounded collection by Maxime Gau that exposes digital letterform construction through an overlap variant and stretches across an extreme variable width axis.
About
Designed by Maxime Gau and engineered by Sabrina Nacmias, the Link Collection comprises three related typefaces sharing identical skeletal forms. Link Overlap pulls back the curtain on digital font construction by making the underlying shape combinations visible, while Link Stencil evolved naturally from stencil alternates that accumulated during that process. All three run a single weight across a variable width axis from Condensed to Extra Wide, making them well-suited to expressive display work where structural curiosity and formal consistency matter equally.
Classification
A geometric, rounded display typeface with variable width axis and stencil/overlap subfamilies; the transparency of letterform construction and extreme width range push it firmly into display territory.
