Framed by a 3x5 rectangle, the anatomy of Ridgeline's characters have a variety of geometric foundations. Vertical strokes measure roughly one third of the characters width and equal the spacing between letters when set naturally. Shared design elements unify the set while allowing room for variation and nuance within the family.
Thanks to everyone who's put this typeface to use! One of the most rewarding parts of the creative process is seeing what's made by other designers who bring a different style or unique angle different from my own.
Crafted as part of a sports identity system with the canvas of athletics in mind, Ridgeline 201 was inspired by speed, power, agility, and an unapologetic style of play. Bold forms and tapering spike serifs project it's precision, weight, and motion.
