TT Nooks is an experimental font family that includes a high contrast serif, TT Nooks, and an upright italic, TT Nooks Script.
Despite the difference in style, both subfamilies get along well, which is partially thanks to their similar proportions.
Each of the subfamilies includes 4 weights: Light, Regular, Bold and Black. More The main subfamily is TT Nooksa stylish high-contrast serif with a light touch of self-centeredness.
If TT Nooks were a person, it would be an elegant lady with an independent and firm personality.
In the original sketches of TT Nooks there were traces of a broad pen, but in the course of further evolution the typeface moved away from this style, retaining only the high contrast of strokes.
In addition, in the process of design searches TT Nooks has obtained a touch of geometricity.
The serifs in TT Nooks stand out especially visibly thanks to their geometric shape that resembles slippers.
In addition to their peculiarity, such serifs add stability to the font and allow better compensation of the black and white ratio within the letters.
TT Nooks has small capitals for Latin and Cyrillic alphabets, as well as a set of stylistic alternates (including some figures) that makes the typeface a bit more geometric.
In addition, we have drawn more than 25 ligatures, including ligatures for capital letters, slashed zero and many other useful OpenType features.
TT Nooks Script is a complementary family designed to harmoniously extend the main family and expand its scope.
The forms of the characters in bold and light fonts of TT Nooks Script are quite different.
For example, Black & Bold have high contrast strokes and an open aperture, and in Regular & Light the aperture of the characters is closed.
TT Nooks also has small capitals for Latin and Cyrillic alphabets, ligatures, oldstyle figures and other OpenType features.
In light faces, TT Nooks Script is more humanist and has artifacts inherent to the continuous movement of a flat pen.
In bold faces, TT Nooks Script has a very dense and dynamic typing rhythm, and the shape of the letters begins to geometrize.
We had had the difficult task of preserving the continuity of forms between bold and light faces, and we have managed to solve it thanks to the found rhythm, which united different fonts, and proximate stylistic solutions.
