A new generation of modern sans serif type is launched today by font foundry URW++ Design & Development. URW Form connects classic and modern geometric typefaces and is available in 540 characters in 80 styles, four widths and several weights, making it truly versatile. It is available with a 50% off introductory offer on the URW++ website: www.urwpp.de/en/form
Created by head designer Volker Schnebel at URW’s Hamburg studio, URW Form was originally inspired by the timeless classic Futura, but influenced by the visuals of modern geometric typefaces. Yet it still incorporates the fundamental rules of design and looks and functions like a contemporary sans.
In addition to its strong identity, URW Form has many quality characteristics and unlimited possibilities for use. It is available in four widths including regular, extended, condensed and a much sought-after semi-condensed extension, which broadens its creative spectrum. There are ten weights ranging from the filigree Thin, to the Demi Bold, to the forceful Poster.
See URW Form in use in the ‘Out of the Box’ wayfinding project at the Clerkenwell Design Week 2017. URW++ is working alongside design and research company, Spaceagency, to guide visitors between the different venues and local transport stops.
New to the UK, the URW++ type foundry brings a fresh approach to type. From its Hamburg studio, it leads the way in font design and technology, working globally with agencies, publishers and brands.
