Information
Sturdy triangular serifs yet light on its feet, HWT Van Lanen is a modern classic. Originally commissioned in 2002, it was Matthew Carter’s first foray into wood type production after a half-century of designing typefaces. With a low contrast, boxy design and inspiration from the interplay of positive and negative forms, Carter imagined how two versions might be used together. You can create chromatics by layering the two or stacking lines on top of each other to create lively blocks of text.
