Dirk is a strong, heavy slab serif meant for large, attention grabbing display use. Dirks design lives somewhere between a Clarendon wood type style and a more modern geometric slab serif.

It features the bracketed serifs, large x-height, and short ascenders/descenders of a Clarendon design, but drawn with the precision curves and smooth, sturdy structure of a geometric slab.

The result retains the charm of wood type, but sheds a lot of the over-familiarity and sameness of a digital revival.

Dirk is available in both a clean, Black weight as well as a Stencil version.

Each styles feature a full Western, Central, and South Eastern European character set.

Inspired by old school sign painting techniques, Grand is a display condensed sans serif that isn't shy to put its foot down.

Its verticality and bulky curves combined with its sharp angular connections between the bowls and stems give Grand a distinctive look and feel.

It comes in 12 styles (6 weights and accompanying italics), and supports over 200 languages.

Grand Regular and Grand Italic are both available for free (personal and commercial use).

The distinctive features of TT Tricks are the relatively low contrast of strokes, the slightly squarish shapes of round characters and the emphasized businesslike nature.

More The original idea of TT Tricks is based on the graduation project of student Sofia Yasenkova, who chose to create a daily planner font as her final project.

This led to many stylistic decisions, for example, the large and asymmetrical serifs, low contrast strokes, and the presence of interesting details.

In the process of working on TT Tricks, we have significantly revised the initial idea and expanded the areas of possible font application, while maintaining the original spirit of the project.

Despite the large number of display details, the typeface looks great in a small point size, and also when it is used in large text arrays.

TT Tricks features an original stylistic set which, when turned on, adds features of typical pointed-pen serifs to some of the lowercase characters.

In addition, TT Tricks has small capitals for Latin and Cyrillic alphabets, as well as several interesting ligatures.

The TT Tricks font family consists of two font subfamilies, these are the main version and the version with the original stencil cutting.

Each subfamily consists of 12 fonts: Light, Regular, DemiBold, Bold, ExtraBold, Black + True Italics.

Following a good tradition, TT Tricks supports a large number of OpenType features: ordn, case, c2sc, smcp, frac, sinf, sups, numr, dnom, onum, tnum, pnum, dlig, liga, calt, salt (ss01).
