Surt

Surt Font Family was designed by Matthieu Salvaggio and published by Blaze Type. Surt contains 60 styles and family package options. The Surt typeface family, inspired by Norse mythology and Scandinavian Architecture, draws a bridge between a geometric sans and a human process in the whole shape design. Surt's Norse-like character set will allow text layouts to have this unusual corkiness which make it so particular and so comfortable to read. The rounded Norse inspired glyphs’ width are shaped in such a way that they operate a discrete rupture in the text rhythmic. Surt also draws inspiration in geometrical shapes found in geometric fonts.While the history of geometric fonts can be traced back to the early days of the modernist movement in the early twentieth century. Surt's inspiration is more contemporary and in link to strong brutalist architecture than historical geometric or even neo grotesque like fonts.
