The inspiration for this typeface originated while we were crafting our sans-serif counterpart, Dazzed. Intrigued by the challenge, we endeavored to adapt Dazzed's construction principles to a serif framework, incorporating exaggerated arches, while drawing rhythmic and structural inspiration from the iconic Trajan's column typeface.

Concrette represents the zenith of our journey through serif typeface design, a journey that commenced with Reckless and progressed through Tobias and Teodor. Its design is a synthesis of our cumulative discoveries, akin to the formation of composite materials like concrete.
|
Includes an extensive range of styles from Thin to Heavy.
|
The Concrette font family offers a trio of distinct variations: XL, M, and S. The XL variant excels in headlines, boasting substantial stroke contrast, while the S variant, with its muted contrast and robust serifs, is adept for smaller text. The M variant, versatile and balanced, is an ideal choice for a wide range of sizes and applications, particularly at medium scales.
|
Variable font allows you to adjust the contrast value to the selected font size or printing technique.
|
Uncover the elegance within the italics: the letters "G, E, F" are adorned with unique swashes, a creative twist directly inspired by the classic design found in the terminals of "V, W, X, Y, Z." A subtle blend of tradition and innovation, just waiting to be explored.

Swashes in italics to get you in the mood.
