Nudge Font

Nudge Font. It’s a condensed gothic sans. It’s a design based on a dog defecation sign composed of letters hand cut out of vinyl which I saw at Silver Lake Reservoir in LA. It stood out for having an uncharacteristically narrow n shape, and nearly closed apertures.

It is named after a verb I use to describe hand-kerning. Spacing/kerning is at the foundation of how most good type works and I love technologies like Letraset which threw that broom out with the dust and allowed some play.

Nudge is in that vein. The contrast is low, the tapers are hardly visible. The rules feel a little broken, I’m not keeping track of which.

With an X-Acto blade, a basic memory of Helvetica Condensed, half a Letraset sheet for Avant Garde Medium Condensed, and 15 minutes, you might create Nudge.

Thanks to the author for giving us a chance to try out the latest font. So if you want a nice font complete with commercial license then you can download the full version.
