Sudtipos is proud to announce the release of Clockmaker, an 8-weight family that takes initial inspiration from typography around the turn of the twentieth century. Clockmaker takes aesthetic references from Victorian, Art Nouveau and Art Deco advertising and typography, taking special influence from John F. Cummings’ all-caps – and never digitized – type design Elandkay.
Clockmaker is a robust multi-weight family that includes an array of ligatures as well as alternate characters and support for all latin languages. The design process began with developing and modernizing the uppercase letterforms, followed by designing the lowercase and additional weights. Creating a diverse and playful set of uppercase ligatures was an almost endlessly enjoyable task; they are one of Clockmaker’s most charming features. Clockmaker is an impeccable choice for designs requiring a vintage flair such as a luxury liquor labels, restaurant identities, lavish hotels and many other applications where elegance and grace are needed.
In addition to its historical references, Clockmaker is an homage to my grandfather who was a master craftsman, repairing antique clocks and fine watches with great skill and mathematical precision. Watching him work was fascinating and it has been a joy to remember those quiet and curious moments from my childhood while designing this font.

Download Intern Sans Font Family From Sömestr Studio
Intern Sans is a linear geometric sans serif, a curious combination of simple shapes with a raw character. This typeface is carefully constructed to create the very basic forms of letters and was developed with minimal optical corrections to maintain the blunt and playful character.
Letters get their dynamic proportions and huge x-height from construction of 5x5 grid of squares, inspired by sketches on a checkered notebook. This results in a unique geometric typeface with a powerful appearance.
Intern Sans's layered variant, Intern Color uses the same construction and reveals the parts. It allows users to play with different color variations for a striking result.
8 Styles: Light, Light Italic, Regular, Regular Italic, Medium, Medium Italic, Bold, Bold Italic
Alternate characters: a, o, M

Download Fine Food Font Family From Jeff Levine
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 Postmodern Moderne Font Family From Jeff Levine
First published in 1938, Letters and Lettering by Paul Carlyle and Guy Loring was a textbook on lettering examples and how to do them. On one of the pages was found a solid black (counterless) Art Deco sans serif design that in its many variations so typified the era.
The example shown in that book served as the model for Postmodern Moderne JNL, which is available in both regular and oblique versions.
