About this typeface:
In Cooke's ongoing quest for simplicity and elegance he developed this striking alternative sans family. Starting with a hairline Thin and finishing with Ultra Black, Precious Sans has a comprehensive range of weights, fairly large x-height and open counters for maximum clarity when set in small point sizes. Mix Precious Sans and Precious Serif together in a block of text to wonderful effect.
About the designer:
Nick Cooke started as a lettering artist in London in 1982 crafting type by hand for book jackets. He doesn't miss the pre-digital age and puts his success down to 'obsession, perseverance, thought and effort'. He controls every aspect of the creative process with particular emphasis placed on consistent character shapes, accurate positioning and extensive kerning. Nick's G-Type foundry was launched in November 1999 to develop innovative, original, but most importantly, usable typefaces.
This package contains:
Precious Sans Thin, Light, Book, Medium, Demi Bold, Bold, Black, Ultra Black and italics of each.
