Nurom Next
The Northern Block · 2017
A contemporary grotesque evolved from the 2017 Nurom typeface, now spanning 20 weights with broad multilingual support across Latin, Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew and Vietnamese.
About
An update to The Northern Block's original Nurom, this release draws on early grotesque conventions while avoiding strict historical revival in favour of clean lines and balanced proportions. The family ships with over 1,000 characters and a comprehensive set of OpenType features including scientific forms, tabular and proportional figures, case forms and discretionary ligatures. Extended language support across Cyrillic, Greek, Hebrew and Vietnamese makes it a practical choice for internationally facing work.
Classification
Described by the foundry as a contemporary sans-serif influenced by early grotesque styles, avoiding strict historical revival in favour of a fresh interpretation of the grotesque tradition.
