    Information

    About Garnier Italic

    PoW Garnier is formally inspired by the work of punchcutter Joan M. Fleischmann, and its digital adaptations. It has been completely redesigned to fit the width and proportions of Times New Roman, one of the most widely used typefaces. The adaptation to this familiar proportions is bringing new stylistic solutions and evolutions to Fleishmann’s shapes. PoW Garnier is designed to typeset long text. Nevertheless it is not without offering character with its forked serifs and exuberant details.

    Echoing the Paris Opéra Garnier, from which its name is taken, it is an eclectic typeface that mixes and blends periods and styles with a strong Baroque influence. Intended to be both discreet and present, its proportions make Garnier a paradoxical synthesis of Baroque eclecticism adapted for contemporary use.

    Last notes

    This is the first Demo of PoW Garnier Italic. Its glyphset contains A-Z a-z 0-9 and basic punctuation. These are spaced and kerned properly.

    Next step is going to be adding the diacritics and extending the glyphset. Then reviewing it all, adding kerning and OpenType.

    We are planning a nice set of Swashes for the final release.
