NaN · Jérémy Landes · 2021
A three-part display family by Jérémy Landes rooted in late Art Nouveau lettering, carrying 280 ligatures in the Titling sub-family and extending through a condensed gothic Sans and a text-weight workhorse, all covering Latin and Cyrillic.
About
The family splits into three distinct but related sub-families: Success Titling, which leans heavily into ornamental ligatures including multi-width variants that mix compressed and wide glyphs for a hand-lettering quality; Success Sans, which takes the same organic curves onto a condensed gothic structure ranging from lace-like Light to a steampunk-inflected Black; and Success Text, a tuned-down version of the titling DNA suited to long reading at small sizes. Latin coverage spans 317 languages and Cyrillic 44. NaN donate 15% of revenue from the family to ClientEarth.
Classification
A three-subfamily display system drawing from late Art Nouveau sources such as De Vinne and Louis Jou, with an ornate titling sub-family packed with ligatures and alternates. The Display classification is appropriate given the titling-first orientation of the family, though Success Text extends usability to body sizes.
