Kern Licence a face Licence

In use

The faces leave the foundry and get set. Here is a handful of places they have landed, by the studios who took the variable file and used the whole range, not one frozen weight.

01
2024 Marquee + Signal Studio Hale

Salt Assembly

Identity and wayfinding for a contemporary art prize

Marquee at 1000 weight on the building, Signal on every label and floor plan. The width axis ran the whole prize from invitation to hoarding.

02
2023 Press + Field In-house

Folio

A quarterly print journal on architecture

Press carries the body at a 9pt optical cut; Field sets the captions and the running heads. Two faces, one impression.

03
2024 Field + Signal Othertype

Tare

Packaging and shelf system for a zero-waste grocer

Field warms the brand voice on the jar; Signal holds the weight, the batch and the bin number where it has to be exact.

04
2022 Meridian Studio Hale

Meridian Transit Authority

A signage trial across nine stations

One face, the full width axis. Narrow on the platform edge where space is tight, wide on the concourse where it is read at distance.

Set something of your own.
