Emerit Blackletter Font Family was designed by Léon Hugues, Matthieu Salvaggio, Tim Vanhille and published by Blaze Type. Emerit Blackletter contains 1 styles and family package options. Emerit is a blackletter font drawing its inspiration in all possible eras of Blackletters & Fraktur designs. In the early stage of the design process, Emerit was thought like a modern reinterpretation of the rotunda style. We first started the design process by establishing the historical structure following the original ductus. We wanted to enrich this particular set of rotunda and blackletter font shape with some modern high contrast details in order to create a unique aesthetic.We came up with those thin organic terminals connecting somehow to calligraphic ornament style. Those details give some quite interesting dancing rhythm to the font which make the letters look alive. With a mix of rounded rotunda inspired shapes and the sharpness of the BLZT style, Emerit establishes itself as a classic for posters, movies or web design projects that need a strong gothic approach.
