Concept

Nyck is a versatile serif typeface that balances elegance and fun. It’s conceived as a typeface for running texts and long reads on account of its alluring rhythm and color. The reading experience was the key driving force behind its personality, even though it doesn’t shy away from expressive outings either. At the end of the day, written texts shouldn't lack character, if you ask me.

Design Concept

Nyck is a versatile serif typeface that balances elegance and fun. It’s conceived as a typeface for running texts and long reads on account of its alluring rhythm and color. The reading experience was the key driving force behind its personality, even though it doesn’t shy away from expressive outings either. At the end of the day, written texts shouldn't lack character, if you ask me.

PDF Specimen

The PDF contains information, specimens of the type including further settings of more languages, features, character sets, all in one document. If you’re a bit old school you can even print it. Download it here.

Talking about expressiveness, some character designs—like the ‘R,’ ‘Q,’ ‘t,’ ‘r,’ or the italic ‘k’ — indisputably depart from your average serif text face, but that’s precisely the setting in which the magic happens. Italic styles naturally bring in more pen-writing energy, and this is a trait in which Nyck’s personality certainly shines through — an overall classy feel constructed through a contemporary lens.

Some of the most flamboyant glyphs in the Nyck palette.

The type family is structured around four weights with their corresponding italics, and all of them come in three different size-specific options — S, M, and L. The size labeling intuitively describes how the fonts are going to be used, and, accordingly, shows up with different contrast and spacing variations. Nyck L features a maximum contrast with hairline strokes and tight spacing, Nyck M is the core of the family bearing a versatile use in mind, while Nyck S is engineered to execute marvelously in small sizes with little contrast and a more generous spacing. But honestly, nobody is discouraging you from scaling them up should you seek further roughness. We just don’t suggest downscaling the L variety too much, though. 🤷‍♂️ Nyck boasts 24 styles altogether, all of which should address the most demanding scenarios in your text setting.

Nyck optical sizes cover lots of ground — from history exam cheat sheet to the next big fashion magazine cover 👀
Starting from size S, each next optical size has more generous contrast and less generous spacing. And lower 👂 in this g case!

Nyck’s roots are intertwined with a diverse range of historic typographic references, from the expressive work of Josef Týfa, William Addison Dwiggins and JvK all the way to the meticulous and precise letters of Jakob Erbar. Certain distinct shapes even stem from vernacular typographic finds that caught our eye during its creation process.

Various images that sit in the inspo folder for this project for years.

For the rather curious designers, there are many extras lurking beneath the apparent surface of the character set, including various ligatures, arrows, manicules, brackets, oversized quotes, and numerous other perks. Considering its diversity, we imagined Nyck being used in magazines, books, and websites with text-heavy content, as well as forward-thinking branding projects.

As always, extra effort has been put into glyphs that no one needs, but makes life more satisfying.
