Liaisons
A Belle Époque humanist serif in two styles: crisp, high-contrast Haut-Monde and soft, low-contrast Demimonde…
When you design a lot of display pieces, you’re often in need of tall, slim type. Liaisons provides that, in a distinct fin-de-siècle style inspired by the great posters of the Gilded Age from Sweden, Denmark, France, and Scotland. (The ampersand alone is a bit of a love letter to Charles Rennie Mackintosh!)
Both styles use the same slim skeleton, and are named after the stratum of society where one might find… a “dancing partner.”
HAUT-MONDE is a high contrast face of the sort that says “High Society.” Elegant and sleek, it speaks to the refinement of the moneyed classes of a bygone era. Great for high-end products, too!
DEMIMONDE is soft and low-contrast — more reminiscent of hand-lettering on Art Nouveau/Jugendstil/Wiener Werkstätte advertisements and posters. A comfortably chic display face all around!
Both typefaces feature full Western and Eastern Latin character sets, as well as full Cyrillic/Slavic ones.
And, perhaps best of all, both typefaces feature capitals with high, middle, and low waists, so you can change up the look as you see fit!
Part of The Ampersand Forest's Sondheim Series, inspired by A Little Night Music.
