Summary

Whisk is an ambitious project that started in 2007, and is currently under continuous development and quality control.

Typefaces can be purely functional to provide the best possible legibility, or they can sacrifice legibility for a very appealing character and quality. I wanted to design a typeface that balances legibility and style, form and function.

Whisk is 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 in various weights will also accompany the regular face to provide flexibility and differentiation.
