Imagine a font that is easier to read the smaller it is – or the further away the text is. There are already many rasterised fonts, I wanted to take it to the extreme and use as few dots as possible. The result is a typeface that lives up to its name.

Each individual circle makes no sense on its own; individual letters are only recognisable in the context of all associated circles, individual letters are most likely to be recognised in the context of whole words.

Attached to a building wall, text would be readable from a great distance and become increasingly difficult to decipher the closer you get to the building. Placed on the ground or on a large flat roof, text would only be readable from a higher building, an aeroplane or - depending on the size - in Google Earth.

Kontext has old style figures, superscript numerals, case-sensitive questiondown and exclamdown and an alternative ampersand, 390 glyphs at all.

Use the same value for font size and line spacing to keep the lines in the grid, or change the line spacing in 10% steps.

Change the spacing in 100-unit increments to keep the grid.

The numbers in the family- and style-names refer to the (ca.) grey value of the respective background and the font itself.

Kontext Dot 00-33 has e.g. a white background (0%) and 33% grey value. Kontext Dot 66-33 has a 66% background and 33% grey value.

»Positive« styles (first number smaller than the second number) have kerning, »negative« styles (first number bigger than the second number) can have none.

Download Ares Fonts Family From Adam Jagosz

Download Now Server 1 Download Now Server 2 Download Now Server 3 Ares is a crisp all-caps display typeface, suitable for sci-fi logos and titles. Its angular, top-heavy letters hang from the cap-height rather than simply sit on the baseline, giving off a futuristic, steampunk vibe. The typeface consists of six subfamilies available in 10 weights, as well as as two variable fonts of three axes: weight, tracking, and custom mid-height axis. The mid-height axis affects the typeface's waistline, including crossbars, and divides the fonts into three subfamilies: Ares Lo, Ares, and Ares Hi. These three families are solid-stroked, and the other three families are their stencil-stylized counterparts: Ares Broken Hi, Ares Broken, and Ares Broken Lo. The tracking axis is only available in the variable versions, and proportionally affects the kerning, thus helping set the type more tightly without effort. Ares supports a wide range of Latin-based orthographies, including not only Europea
