sans-serifcompact geometric sans, Filmotype revival
A revival of a 1950s Filmotype face from the same compact geometric-sans G-series as Gay and Gem.
About
Filmotype Ginger shares its G-series siblings' Futura-like DNA: one-story a, round dots, simplified t and u. Simonson's digitisation keeps the whip-lash S spine and hand-lettered warmth of the 1950s original. It's owned by Font Diner and licensed under their terms, and has a dedicated outline/shadow companion in Filmotype Vanity.
Classification
Another Futura-adjacent compact sans from the Filmotype G-series, classed as sans-serif for the same reasons as its siblings.
