PTF Seravek

Process Type Foundry has released the new linear sans Seravek. They optimized it for identity, signage and information graphics. Based on my own background, I can see it becoming a favorite in corporate ID systems. It has a precision that doesn’t come off cold, and its light weights are quite inviting. The italics are especially graceful for a grotesk, with nice informal arcs in the w, y, etc.. I am not as sure about the heavier weights. They don’t feel quite as cohesive, especially surrounding the capital M, but I haven’t actually used this typeface yet. If anyone has some real world samples, I’d love to see them.

    In case you’re at TypeCon now or heading to ATypI in Brighton next month, you can see Seravek in use on some postcards and a specimen booklet we made to show off our Reading fonts this year. (Eric Olson at Process was kind enough to let us give Seravek a test run for him.)
