I Shot the Serif

If one typically avoids colliding glyph anatomy then Jaune looks at the problem upside down and sticks together that which normally shouldn’t touch. NaN Jaune is a collection of three sub-families, one per optical size.
▷ Maxi was created with display in mind. Ranging from the blackest Black to a razor sharp Thin its short extenders make it ideal for compact text blocks and strong headlines.
▷ Midi is the all-terrain middle-child comfortable in all contexts and conversations.
▷ Mini’s open counters, deep ink-traps and simplified structure enhance legibility and eases Jaune’s natural swagger in longer text and smaller sizes.
