Overview

Whisk Regular is being designed by Joachim Lapiak and will be released soon.

Typefaces can be purely functional to provide the best possible legibility, while others design display fonts that may not be as legible, but conveys a very appealing character and quality. I wanted to design a typeface for a specific use, and allow a subject to be the basis of my design. I decided to go with food, as it is a basic need that we all need and enjoy in our lives. Keywords such as homestyle, aroma, fresh, delicious, tender, sweet, and organic are qualities that I tried to incorporate into the letters. At the same time, legbility is very important where text is versatile enough to be read from caption sizes to headers.

Whisk is also being produced to be used in a variety of languages, with complete kerning sets, and with OpenType features such as ligatures, small caps, and titling figures. A complete family including italics and bold will also accompany the regular face to provide flexibility and differentiation.
