Hi all, we’re aware that our website is down—we’re working on getting it back up. Sorry & stay tuned!

The website is back online! Thanks for your patience.

The story of Community Gothic begins with the sans serif “jobbing” typefaces of the 19th century: clear and durable, though often coarse, even awkward. Our family revives the gritty forms of that genre, and the patchwork sets such designs came in. frerejones.com/families/commu…

New on the blog: we asked Elizabeth Goodspeed Elizabeth Goodspeed to help tell the story behind Community Gothic. The family sums up two decades of experimentation, and the strands of type history that inspired it are more intricate than they may seem: frerejones.com/blog/grit-and-…

Our friend 𝖄𝕠𝕥𝕒𝕞 𝕳𝕒𝕕𝕒𝕣 designed this newsprint specimen of Community Gothic for Typographics. “A Bed of Eels” uses collective nouns to showcase this family of fonts, & includes Elizabeth Goodspeed ’s essay about the design. Extra copies available in our shop: frerejones.com/goods

Ben Fehrman-Lee designed our new library specimen, showing our retail library with its newest addition, Community Gothic. A new approach: no waterfalls! It’s gorgeous; 60pp, printed on four paper stocks, lots of type & full-color images. Get your own: frerejones.com/goods

EXHIBIT: Tobias Frere-Jones' Supermassive type family explores visual stability with heavy strokes, designed for impactful headlines, influenced by 1960s handlettering, and balances density with delicacy. ow.ly/sh9h50TiSzE
