Forrest — Familiar Type, Real Character
Typographers—and clients alike—often chase novelty. Sometimes it shows up as self-conscious, made-you-look details. Other times it’s austere, detached minimalism. Either way, the constant search for something new can become the goal. Often, an old trick beats a bagful of new ones. What you may actually need is a good, reliable font family with soul—one that brings a comforting, familiar feel to editorial design, branding, and everyday typography.
That is where Forrest comes in. This type family grew from a lifelong passion for digging through old font archives in search of the good old type: simple, honest, and made with love. But Forrest is not stuck in the past. It is as savvy as fonts come, packed with smart features. Handsome swashes, cute small capitals, and old style figures add just enough flair for a sophisticated, contemporary approach to typography.
