Who needs a typeface? Romance in a Readable Font, a promotional video for Absent Grotesque created by the internet’s most beloved video artists, Fred & Sharon. Including Fred, Sharon, uncomfortable silences, and animation (don’t forget the animation!).

In 2007 Michael Cina found four individuals, Eric Carlson, Matt Desmond, Maddy Nye, Travis Stearns with sound abilities in imperfection for the YouWorkForThem type foundry. The design of “a model sans serif” typeface releases all that associate with rigid standards of life. Adding some new members, the fonts were tested in Berlin, to closely view the idiosyncrasies contributed through time by all. Inspiration was taken from any character set, but nature gave us this - a perfect realist sans-serif in OpenType format with a deep and inconsistent breath.
