Alegreya was chosen as one of 53 "Fonts of the Decade" at the ATypI Letter2
competition in September 2011, and one of the top 14 text type systems. It
was also selected in the 2nd Bienal Iberoamericana de Diseño, competition
held in Madrid in 2010. Alegreya is a typeface originally intended for
literature. Among its crowning characteristics, it conveys a dynamic and
varied rhythm which facilitates the reading of long texts. Also, it
provides freshness to the page while referring to the calligraphic letter,
not as a literal interpretation, but rather in a contemporary typographic
language. The italic has just as much care and attention to detail in the
design as the roman. The bold weights are strong, and the Black weights are
really experimental for the genre. Not only does Alegreya provide great
performance, but also achieves a strong and harmonious text by means of
elements designed in an atmosphere of diversity. |
