Peking Duck fonts from Hanoded - (zhklt)

Peking Duck
Designed by David Kerkhoff, Peking Duck is a brush display font family. This typeface has two styles and was published by Hanoded.


I used to be a tour guide and I traveled to China numerous times. Usually, the itinerary mentioned going to a restaurant in Beijing and eating ‘Beijing Roast Duck’ (北京烤鸭), a famous dish that has been prepared since the Imperial era. Typically, the whole duck is sliced at your table. The skin is crisp, glazed and thin and you should eat it with thin pancakes and thinly sliced spring onion.

Of course, if I had to guide several ‘China tours’ in a row, I would often eat something else (there is only so much Beijing Duck you can eat).

Peking Duck is a nice, handmade, Chinese Ink font. Use it for your restaurant menu, your book covers or your posters, advertising oriental food!

Grato is shaped by pure forms, low stroke modulation and square dots that contrast with almost perfect circles. Grato Grotesk takes that core and pursues the industrial logic of early German geometric typefaces. The result is a typeface of quirks and clarity, a substantial family for...

Plethora fonts from Sudtipos - (rxdap)

Designed by Alejandro Paul, Plethora is a serif font family. This typeface has twenty styles and was published by Sudtipos . Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 3 Download Now Server 2 A few years ago I’ve discovered the work of one of the most prolific typeface designers of the Bruce type Foundry in NYC during late nineteenth century. Browsing Julius Herriet’s work I found a very unique kind of ligatures in his patented “Old Style Ornamented” type design. Some letters were designed with a little top tail that allowed them to connect to each other. After that, I found that he also designed a single italic weight of the same font 7 years later. Since the beginning of the Opentype days I’ve been deeply obsessed with exploring different ways to build ligatures, so that lead me up to this point where I felt the need to create “ Plethora ”, this new font inspired by Herriet’s work. Extrapolating weights, adding variable technology and playing with additional i...
