Design Approach:

Em One is the first typeface developed in collaboration with our colleague Luboslav Boyanov, a graduate of the National Academy of Art Sofia. Our goal was to create a functional typeface with a broad range of applications, from web and print to branding, editorial work, and various design contexts. It embodies the distinctive character and aesthetics of classic Swiss typefaces while maintaining a straightforward design.

Distinct Features:

Key features of Em One include a tall x-height, minimal contrast between strokes, and moderate proportions that enhance readability. Refined letter spacing amplifies the overall appearance, while distinctive elements in some letters add character without introducing excessive visual noise. This balance makes Em One both versatile and aligned with graphic identity.

Font Family Composition:

Em One offers 9 weights ranging from Thin to Black, each accompanied by its italic version. It is available in refined OTF, TTF, and web font formats. Additionally, a variable font format provides greater flexibility for dynamic solutions.

Technical Specifications:

Designed for a broad audience, Em One supports over 220 languages, including extended Latin and Cyrillic scripts. It features an array of typographic options such as ligatures, stylistic sets, contextual alternatives, and various OpenType attributes.

Usage:

Em One is multifunctional and adaptable; its different weights can serve as standalone elements or complements within design systems. Thicker weights are ideal for headlines and display elements, while middleweights are optimized for text blocks. Designed for screen performance as well as print use, Em One effectively balances glyphs and negative space across all media.

Summary:

Em One is a practical sans-serif typeface inspired by popular Swiss designs from the mid-20th century. As a multipurpose font, it excels in both display contexts and functional applications while remaining recognizable and characterful throughout its usage.
