About
Part of the Commercial Type Vault – a collection of unreleased and archival typefaces, many originally drawn as custom projects – Viktor features sharp incised letterforms with minimal serifs and a generous set of OpenType stylistic alternates. These include thin terminals, rounder figures, a pointy A, spurless G, notched R, and tapering thin strokes, giving art directors significant control over the typeface's character. Its fashion and culture editorial pedigree is evident in its high contrast and distinctive uppercase.
Classification
Viktor is an incised, scantly serifed display face with sharp, angular detailing and optional thin terminals, placing it firmly in the incised or glyphic display category rather than a conventional serif or sans-serif.
