A 1942 photograph showing the exterior of the famous Hollywood restaurant Sardi’s and it’s unusually lettered sign was the inspiration for Fine Food JNL.
Classically Art Deco, the Sardi’s sign had an ‘S’ looking like an inverted ‘J’ with a flat tail, a traditional ‘A’ replaced by a triangle and the ‘R’ composed of a ‘D’ with a diagonal extension.
These elements were balanced against more traditional [but complementary] characters to retain the novel charm of the original signage.
Fine Food JNL is available in both regular and oblique versions.
Download Rae Low Font Family From BumbumType Rae Low is a low contrast sans serif typeface with strong roots in German typography. Inspirit by 19th century store and street signs, Rae Low is a homage to a traditional craft which is deeply grounded in functionality. By combining low contrast with high contrast letterforms and deep ink traps which all got pushed to the maximum, we created a truly futuristic typeface. Rae Low works well as display typeface, but also can create interesting body copy. Download Rae Low Font Family From BumbumType Download Now View Gallery
