Dælort Typeface specimen from 6TM Magazine

A single-weight display serif by Jules Bigot with sharply aggressive terminals and a ligature-heavy construction drawn from a dystopian visual sensibility.

About

Dælort pairs a conventional serif skeleton with unconventional, sharply cut terminals that give each character a distinctly hostile edge. The typeface ships with 498 glyphs, three numeral sets and a ligature system designed to merge multiple letters into composite forms. With no italic or additional weight, it is best suited to editorial headlines and experimental display work where typographic personality carries the design.

Classification

Single-weight serif with sharp, aggressively cut terminals and an elaborate ligature system; the overall dystopian aesthetic and display-only weight range place it in the display category rather than workhorse serif.
