Armature Neue Sans
PSY/OPS Type Foundry · Bob Aufuldish · 2010
A constructed, near-monoline geometric sans in six weights with italics, extended from Bob Aufuldish's original Armature Neue family and featuring dinosaur dingbats and stylistic alternates.
About
Originating in a design Aufuldish began in 1992 under the working name Dino, Armature Neue Sans pairs its essentially monoline construction with subtle optical corrections that prevent the visual monotony typical of strictly even strokes. The family ships with 12 fonts covering six weights and matching italics, with Western and Eastern European character sets, ligatures, stylistic alternates including closed-counter B and R, and a dinosaur-themed dingbat set.
Classification
A constructed, near-monoline geometric sans with subtle optical compensations to counteract the visual evenness inherent in true monolines. The family extends the original Armature Neue with six weights and matching italics.
