Tangent

HWT Tangent, a modern font with a 200-year-old legacy, features nesting letters, numerous alternates, and double-Os. Inspired by the 1800s wood type Tangent from the Cary Graphic Arts Collection at RIT, designer Patrick Griffin expanded it to over 500 glyphs, including ten alternates for the letter A. The font’s ascenders and descenders support smaller letters, allowing for creative spacing and versatility. The dynamism of Tangent lies in its unique letterforms and your skill in combining them.
