Typekit Practice

Allumi STD from Typofonderie

Yours truly, writing for Typekit:

Right angles, squared curves, and bulky joints give Allumi letterforms a massive quality that’s also evident when the font is typeset. Heavyweight headlines set darkly, with stroke thickness mostly overpowering the white space in counters. Paragraph text appears flat and stout, with wide glyphs and horizontal stroke endings producing lines of text that feel anchored into place.

And a nice comment from Stephen Coles:

Allumi seems to be born for the screen. This sort of construction, like Verdana, suffers less from the constraints of hinting, remaining clear and relatively true to form on Windows.
