字體屬性：
Zemestro是一種易於閱讀的簡單設計。根據其設計師Dave Farey的說法，它沒有任何書法特征，也沒有定義或可識別的單個字符——它隻是線條流暢，結構簡單。”
Farey的目標是創作一種比那些僅有單一字符及筆畫寬度的字體更加清晰、更加友好的字體。該字體是基於Farey的兩個較早的設計：Cachet——他在1999年繪制的soft-terminal無襯線體，以及為英國科學雜志《New Scientist》創作的部分字母。Cachet看起來像是等距的且是由精確的幾何筆畫構成，但事實並非如此。為《New Scientist》繪制的字符比Cachet更為細窄且結構化。後來的Zemestro采用瞭《New Scientific》都得字母比列，並將它們構建成一個完整的字體傢族。圓形字符的字肩是正方形的，這有助於在視覺上創建一致的字母間距甚至排印色彩。
Zemestro傢族有四種字重，兩種最細的字重還有補充的斜體。 文本以Book字重顯示時看起來很吸引人且輕松悅目，而Regular則更具氣勢和權威性。Medium和Bold字重非常適合於在文本正文中進行強調，以及在顯示尺寸時也是很強的傳播者。
關於Zemestro這個名字？ “我一直對字體名稱很著迷，”Farey說。“我的大多數靈感來自電影或書籍。”在閱讀一本關於俄國革命的書時，Farey瞭解到zemestro這個詞指的是一個村委會或長者組織，“在列寧同志將其全部解散之前，”他解釋道。“所以這是自1917年以來的第一個Zemestro。我認為這值得復興。”
Zemestro is a straightforward design that is meant to be read. According to its designer, Dave Farey, There’s nothing calligraphic about it, and there are no defining or identifiable single characters — it’s just clean and simply constructed."
Farey’s goal was to create a more legible and friendlier typeface than those limited to single character and stroke widths. The face finds its foundation in two earlier designs from Farey: Cachet, a soft-terminal sans he drew in 1999, and a partial alphabet he created for the New Scientist, a British scientific journal. Cachet appears to be monospaced and constructed with geometrically precise character strokes, but it isn’t. The characters drawn for New Scientific are more condensed and structured than Cachet. Their offspring Zemestro takes on the proportions of the New Scientific letters and builds them into a full typeface family. Round characters have squared shoulders, helping to create visually consistent letter spacing and even typographic color. Terminals are now square and clipped at right angles to the stroke.
The Zemestro family is available in four weights, with complementary italics for the two lightest weights. Text copy in the Book weight is inviting and easy on the eyes, while the Regular is more imposing and authoritative. The Medium and Bold weights are excellent for providing emphasis in text copy and are also strong communicators at display sizes.
The name Zemestro? "I’m always fascinated by typeface names," says Farey. "Most of mine are inspired by movies or books." It was while reading a book on the Russian revolution that Farey learned zemestro was the word for a village council or group of elders, "before Comrade Lenin dissolved them all," he explains. "So this is the first Zemestro since 1917. I thought it was worth reviving.""
