Form ConceptItalic forms: The italic forms of Vialog™ are not simply the slanted forms of the roman, rather, were individually designed. A graphically balanced typeface results from the reduced weight of curve ends and lightly arched outline of the straight strokes. (See figure 1)
Horizontal weights: The horizontal weight is designed to allow a horizontal scaling of up to 105%. (See figure 2)
Organically dynamic form concept: The key figure S is an outstanding example of the organically dynamic form concept of Vialog™. The human eye perceives the balanced weight of its strokes as exceptionally legible compared with purely construced forms. (See figure 3)
Large x-height: Vialog™ distinguishes itself by a large x-height combined with relatively small ascenders and descenders, which results in related and highly legible texts (See figure 4). more ... Usage |
