Brother 1816 Font

THIS YEAR WE CELEBRATE THE BICENTENNIAL OF THE INAUGURAL SANS-SERIF FONT. AND WHAT BETTER WAY TO HONOR IT THAN CREATING OUR OWN SANS-SERIF!

Brother 1816 is an incredibly versatile and robust typeface that seamlessly blends geometric shapes with humanistic strokes. With over 20 alternate characters to choose from, you can opt for a purely geometric or humanistic style, or even combine them to evoke the desired aesthetic for your projects. Its humanistic design ensures effortless readability, making it perfect for branding, editorial work, and signage in small sizes.

When used for larger applications that require more personality, such as branding, headlines, and posters, Brother's geometric nature truly shines. Its extensive font collection comprises a total of 32 fonts, divided into two groups: normal (16 weights) and printed (16 weights). Each weight boasts an impressive range of features, including over 460 characters, 20 alternate options, angular and straight edges, swashes, fractions, ordinals, and much more. Furthermore, Brother has been meticulously optimized for web use, utilizing hinting instructions that ensure optimal legibility across various screen resolutions and sizes.
