Francis Gradient
A directional shading system built on the Francis humanist sans, offering four gradient variants for display and branding use.
About
Francis Gradient extends the Francis typeface family with four shading directions: Left, Right, Inside and Outside, each creating a distinct three-dimensional or illuminated effect across the letterforms. The system runs across five weights from Light to Heavy, all with matching italics, giving designers considerable range within the gradient treatment. Used in book covers, branding and identity work where typographic depth is required without resorting to manual effects.
Classification
Francis Gradient is a display-oriented variant of the Francis family, a humanist sans-serif. The gradient system adds directional shading variants (Left, Right, Inside, Outside) as a typographic effect layer on top of the underlying humanist sans structure.
