Graveur
Graveur is a Renaissance style text face based in the work of the French punchcutter Robert Granjon (1513-1589).
Started as my project at Expert Class in Type Design in Antwerp, Graveur has grown to become a typeface with four optical sizes and seven weights, plus italics and an ornaments font. It also has variable fonts for extra fine tuning.
Working on original artifacts kept in Museum Plantin-Moretus in Antwerp, observation of his punches, matrices and printed materials resulted in a extense type family. Despite been a Granjon style typeface, Graveur tries to capture the overall style of Granjon rather than simply being a slavish copy of a particular source.
With a huge character set and a heavy use of OpenType features, Graveur is a Granjon style typeface that will fit any of your Renaissance person needs.
In 2022, Graveur was awarded with GOLD in Text Typefaces category in the European Design Awards.
