ABOUT

Alaric Garnier

Educated as a sign painter, he now poractices type and book design. Creator at Production Type of Mars Extended and Mars Condensed (2018) and the high-contrast inscriptional typeface family Kessler (2013-2019) which is a revival of a bespoke type commissioned in 1905 by Harry Kessler. Kessler won an award at 23TDC.

In 2020, he published the text family Big Daily at Production Type, which writes: Big Daily is inspired by daily newspaper typefaces---not ubiquitous headline display fonts, but the small copy. At its best in small point sizes from 6pt - 12pt, its contrast is both significant and sturdy, avoiding the clunky, zoomed-in nature of many fonts designed for this size. .
