Vulgat specimen from Typogama

An uncial-inspired typeface by Michael Parson that adapts a medieval script tradition into a contemporary family of 18 styles with variable font support and broad Latin and Cyrillic coverage.

About

Rooted in the rounded, open forms of uncial script, Vulgat balances historical letterform character with the practical demands of modern typography. Nine weights from Light to Extra Black, each with a matching italic, plus a variable font, give it flexibility across print and digital contexts. The extended character set covers most Latin and Cyrillic-based languages, making it suitable for multilingual publishing.

Classification

Vulgat draws directly from uncial letterforms, a historical script tradition predating the Roman minuscule, blending rounded, open strokes with a contemporary weight range. Its soft, rounded stroke construction and open counters are characteristic of uncial-inspired display typefaces.
