Logica Big Font

Logica is a very classic book typeface in terms of proportions and type family components. Available in Roman, Italic, Small Capitals and Bold, Logica’s proportions were based in the specimens found in the book “John Fell - The University Press and the Fell Types”, but because we never wanted to do a revival, we decided to get further information and details on typefaces from the same period. The result is a mixture of some characteristics of The Fell Types and the work of Nicholas Tótfalusi Kis, found in the book “Nicholas Kis - A Hungarian Punch-cutter and Printer”. We then introduced a much more contemporary character into the fonts with the implementation of angular looking curves. This wouldn’t be one of DSType’s typefaces without a big, black, contrasted display version, therefore Logica Big was born. A  natural companion to Logica, that enhances the characteristics of the text counterpart. Both families include an amazing set of very calligraphic swashes.
