About Natri Typeface

An Architectural Typeface
inspired by Calligraphy and Sign-painting

The shape of the strokes and the typeface proportions were heavily influenced by two sources: broad nib calligraphy and speed stroke caps.
There are different methods of interpreting the handwriting. In the case of Natri, instead of forcing a handmade look, it takes advantage of computer digitization. The natural stroke endings of brush lettering are replaced with strict mechanic-geometric look. In certain letter combinations, letters look like architectural objects – buildings viewed from above.
The vector drawings were tested over and over with the brush until it was possible to letter them by hand, so it could be used as a lettering model as well. The possibility of having the computer font and being able to write it by hand gives the typeface new possibilities – these two modes can be combined in projects such as corporate identity programs.
A range of widths was designed to give the typeface more flexibility when combined with sign painting and fit certain space conditions.
