Mr. Porter's Handwriting

Posted on DateAugust 7, 2012 |

Design group Underware on their custom font Mr. Porter created for men’s goods site MrPorter:

We tried to make him as human as possible, not only being different all the time, but also including obvious shortcomings. Funny enough it takes a highly intelligent font to have fully controlled imperfections. The result is a single typeface with a strong relation between the glyph set (which characters should be in the font) and the way these glyphs work together.

It’s a pretty cool human looking font with truly amazing attention to detail. Just look at the 12 different variations of the lowercase y!
