A contemporary serif drawing on classicist proportions and the incidental character of metal typesetting, with calligraphic ascenders, filled narrow gaps and a companion mono subfamily.
About
Fleya runs across four weights from Light to Bold, each with a matching italic, plus four Mono styles that make it an unusually complete family for a smaller foundry. Distinctive details include calligraphic ascenders and descenders and filled narrow gaps that recall the ink traps and quirks of metal composition. The character set covers a wide range of Latin-extended languages and the OpenType feature set includes multiple numeral styles, extensive ligatures and three stylistic sets.
Classification
Described as a modern serif with a classicist approach, blending contemporary type design with details evoking metal typesetting irregularities, including filled narrow gaps and calligraphic ascenders and descenders.
