The goal is to produce a practical, easy-to-read font suitable for journalistic use at multiple weights. News Cycle is currently available in regular weight, covering Unicode Latin-1, Latin Extended A and Latin Extended B.</p> <p class="mumbojumbo">Technical mumbo-jumbo: <ul class="mumbojumbo"> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="http://launchpad.net/newscycle/trunk">Get the source code</a></li> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="http://launchpad.net/newscycle/+milestones">Read the roadmap</a></li> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="http://bugs.launchpad.net/newscycle/+filebug">Report some bugz</a></li> </ul> </p> </div> <div class="span-12 prepend-1 prepend-top append-1 last"> <p><img class="right" src="newscycle-sample-02.png" width=470 height=254></p> </div>  <div class="span-9 prepend-1 prepend-top clear"> <h4>Beta release: v 0.6 Novemberish, 2015</h4> <p>The development version of News Cycle currently incorporates two significant changes over the stable release. First, it adds Cyrillic and Greek character sets, which are intended to harmonize with the original Latin design.</p> <p>Second, it adds a true italic, rather than a simple slanted "oblique." ATF New Gothic, on which News Cycle is based, did not feature a true italic, so this design is my attempt to fashion something a tad more eye-pleasing than an oblique, but which does not look drastically out of place on the same page as News Cycle Regular. To avert undue pain and suffering, the beta version is currently only published as a UFO font. <p class="mumbojumbo">You've been warned: <ul class="mumbojumbo"> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="newscycle-regular-beta-0.6.ufo.zip">Get the Regular</a></li> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="newscycle-italic-beta-0.6.ufo.zip">Get the Italic</a></li> </ul> </p> </div> <div class="span-12 prepend-1 prepend-top append-1 last"> <p><img class="right" src="newscycle-sample-b01.png" width=470 height=157></p> <p><img class="right" src="newscycle-sample-b02.png" width=470 height=215></p> </div>  <div class="span-9 prepend-1 prepend-top clear"><h2>Della Respira</h2> <h4>Stable release: <strong><a href="https://launchpad.net/revivalism-fonts/trunk/della-respira/+download/dellarespira.zip">v 1.0</a></strong> March 28, 2012</h4> <p>Della Respira is a revival of ATF's Della Robbia, an art-deco era typeface designed by Thomas Maitland Cleland. The name "Della Robbia" is a reference to Florentine sculptors Andrea and Luca della Robbia (and perhaps other members of the family); Cleland's inspiration was Florentine inscriptions from the time that the Della Robbias lived.</p> <p>My revival, so far, only attempts to recreate the regular weight. There was also a light version. What I find more interesting, though, were the intricate capital ornaments. I have started to add those to Della Respira, but only time will tell if time permits me to complete that project. In the interim, the released version does feature some nice swash variants.</p> <p class="mumbojumbo">Technical mumbo-jumbo: <ul class="mumbojumbo"> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="https://launchpad.net/revivalism-fonts/trunk/della-respira">Get the source code</a></li> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="http://launchpad.net/revivalism-fonts/+milestones">Read the roadmap</a></li> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="http://bugs.launchpad.net/revivalism-fonts/+filebug">Report some bugz</a></li> </ul> </p> </div> <div class="span-12 prepend-1 prepend-top append-1 last"> <p><img class="right" src="dellarespira-sample-01.png" width=470 height=230></p> </div> <div class="span-9 prepend-1 prepend-top clear"><h2>Bodega Script</h2> <h4>Alpha release: v 0.1 June, 2012</h4> <p>Bodega Script is still in development. It is a revival of ATF's famous Brush Script. As with my other revival efforts, the end goal is to extend the character coverage and to provide a usable open-source implementation. You can download Bodega Script in OTF form, but it still has quite a few rough edges, paricularly since it is my first stab at a script face.</p> <p class="mumbojumbo">Abandon all hope, ye who click here: <ul class="mumbojumbo"> <li><a class="mumbojumbo" href="BodegaScript.otf">Bodega Script OTF</a></li> </ul> </p> </div> <div class="span-12 prepend-1 prepend-top append-1 last"> <p><img class="right" src="bodega-sample-01.png" width=470 height=277></p> </div> </div> <div class="span-24 last" style="background:#ffffff; min-height:300px; box-shadow:0px 0px 30px 20px #ffffff; -moz-box-shadow:0px 0px 30px 20px #ffffff; -webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 30px 20px #ffffff; box-shadow: 0px 0px 30px 20px #ffffff;"> <div class="span-6 pullbackground-red">  <div class="pullbox" style="background-image: url(pullimage-package.png); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: center bottom;"> <h3 class="pulltitle" style="color:#ff1111">Download!</h3> <p class="pulltext">Click <a class="pulltext" href="current.zip">here</a> for the complete readymade, installable bundle.
