Meteor specimen from Fond de riz

A variable serif by Marie Deloffre that slides between two drawn instances – one legible, one fully abstract – allowing the designer to control how much the text reads as language or material.

About

Meteor is built on a variable axis spanning a legible serif instance and an abstract, opaque one, with any point between available for use. This spectrum lets the typeface operate as conventional text or dissolve into a foreign, texture-like substance. The single weight is free to download, positioning it as a tool for experimental typographic work.

Classification

A fantaisie serif drawn in two interpolated instances – one legible, one abstract – placing it firmly in the experimental display category. The variable axis between readable and opaque forms defies conventional classification and prioritises expressive over functional use.
