字體屬性:


Morris Sans是1930年由Morris Fuller Benton為ATF設計的一個小型幾何字體傢族的最新修訂和擴展版本。他最初的設計包括一個由方形的大寫字母組成的字母表,其外觀具有獨一無二的特征:轉角的外角是圓形,內角是直角。這些字體是為瞭用於精美的印刷品如名片、銀行或財務表格以及合同。但在隨後的幾十年裡,這種設計已成為各種設計環境中的流行元素,一些鑄造廠復刻瞭這種字體的數字版本。由於數字字體是bicameral的,大寫字母和小寫字母都有槽,因此新的字體選擇用小型大寫字母填充小寫字母槽。


2006年,Linotype完成瞭自己的字體版本——為21世紀所做的擴展。在Linotype的字體總監Akira Kobayashi的建議下,Dan Reynolds重新繪制瞭大寫字母並新添加瞭小寫字母。此外,字體還增加瞭許多附加功能,包括六種數字樣式(等寬和不等寬對齊數字,等寬和不等寬老式數字,以及特殊的等寬和不等寬小型大寫字母數字)。隨著時間的推移,小型大寫字母已成為一種標志性的元素,每種字體都可以將其作為OpenType功能使用。為瞭與原始版本區別開來,Linotype的新傢族被命名為Morris Sans,以紀念Morris Fuller Benton。


Morris Sans傢族中的所有字體均為OpenType Com字體;它們包含一個字符集,該字符集能夠設置48種使用羅馬字母的歐洲語言,包括所有中歐和東歐的語言、波羅的海語言以及土耳其語。該字形的覆蓋范圍也擴展到瞭小型大寫字母。


Morris Sans是一種寬大的字體,尤其是其Regular字重的寬度;Condensed的字體設置瞭更傳統的文本行。新的小寫字母的幾何感不如大寫字母,那些具有相同的基本形式的字母(如c,o和s)除外。新的小寫字母沒有遵循這種幾何趨勢,而是趨向於加強初始字體中的多個字符所呈現的人文主義元素,包括大寫字母D和數字5、6和9。就像原始大寫字母Q上的筆觸一樣。Morris Sans還展示瞭一些字形的耀斑,比如原來大寫Q上的筆畫。


Morris Sans是一種簡介、現代的設計,最適合用於標題、廣告、海報、富有表現力的標牌(尤其是在店面上)和企業標識。”

Morris Sans is a newly revised and extended version of a small geometric family of typefaces originally produced by Morris Fuller Benton in 1930 for ATF. His initial design consisted of an alphabet of squared capital letters with a unique twist that characterized its appearance: corners with rounded exteriors and right-angle interiors. The types were intended for use in the fine print found on business cards, banking or financial forms, and contracts. But over the ensuing decades, this design became a popular element in all sorts of design environments, and several foundries revived the typeface in digital form. Since digital fonts are bicameral, with slots for both upper and lowercase letters, new cuts of the type opted filled the lowercase slots with small caps.


In 2006, Linotype commissioned its own version of the typeface-an extension for 21st century use. Under the advisement of Linotype’s type director Akira Kobayashi, Dan Reynolds redrew the uppercase and added an original lowercase for the first time. Additionally, a number of extras were brought into the fonts, including six figure styles (tabular and proportional lining figures, tabular and proportional oldstyle figures, and special tabular and proportional small cap" figures). Small caps, which have become an iconic element over time, are accessible in each font as an OpenType feature. To differentiate this version from the original, Linotype’s new family is named Morris Sans, in honor of Morris Fuller Benton.


All fonts in the Morris Sans family are OpenType Com fonts; they include a character set capable of setting 48 European languages that employ the Roman alphabet, including all Central and Eastern Europe languages, those from the Baltics, and Turkish. This glyph coverage extends to the small caps as well.


Morris Sans is a wide typeface, especially in its regular widths; the condensed faces set a more conventional line of text. The new lowercase letters are less geometric than the uppercase, except for those that share the same basic forms (e.g., c, o, and s). Instead of following this geometric trend, the new lowercase tends to strengthen the humanist elements that were present in several characters from the original type, including the uppercase D and the figures 5, 6, and 9. Morris Sans also sports a number of glyphic flares, like the stroke found on the original uppercase Q.


Morris Sans is a clean, modern design best suited for headlines, advertising, posters, expressive signage (especially on storefronts), and corporate identity work."
