Should it be a sans serif, a text face, a script font, or perhaps blackletter? Every month, selected fonts are chosen from the depths of Linotype´s collection for your perusal. Check out this month´s medley!

The Italian designer Francesco Simoncini (died 1967) created the fonts New Aster™ (1958), Simoncini Garamond™ (1961), and Life® (1965).

This book and newspaper font was designed by Francesco Simoncini in 1958. After the Second World War brought type design to a standstill, the years of reconstruction meant a reconsideration of old values in the typographical world as well as in Europe in general. Aster is the result of this movement, displaying instead of Modern Face influence, a tendency toward Transitional characteristics and giving text a light feel. New Aster is an improved version which was made by Linotype Design Studio.
