Dreamed up by Phaedra Charles Flavia Zimbardi, Fraunces breaks the mold as a quirky display serif that winks at the theatrical flair of early 1900s classics like Windsor, Souvenir, and the Cooper family. Far from your typical font release, Fraunces is hitting the scene as an Open Source Variable powerhouse with four playful dimensions to tweak: Weight, Softness, Wonk, and Optical Size.
Don’t mistake Fraunces for just another Old Style typeface—it’s an “Old Style” with attitude. This is typography that tosses rigid construction rules out the window, embracing character over conformity. Each letter seems to say, “Personality first, perfection second.”
Fraunces is an Open Source font, meaning you can download it, edit it, subset it, and do whatever you’d like with it! Available currently through GitHub, and eventually on Google Fonts.
Styles: Roman & Italic, 4 Axes, 100+ styles.
