Alyc
Rellence · Jan Weidemüller · 2023
A rounded grotesk with fully circular terminals and semi-rounded stems, striking a warm, approachable balance across six weights and a two-axis variable font.
About
Alyc applies roundness with restraint: terminals are completely circular while stems stay semi-rounded, giving the face friendliness without tipping into novelty. Six weights run from Light to Black, each paired with a true italic, and a two-axis variable font covers the full weight and slant range in a single file. The 565-glyph set includes stylistic alternates, old-style and tabular figures, case-sensitive forms and a slashed zero – enough for professional editorial and branding work.
