Basic Font Information

Federant revives the Reklameschrift typeface Feder Antiqua by 
Otto Ludwig Nägele (1911). 

The main challenge of designing a modern interpretation was to 
equilibrate between applying visual corrections for overall 
consistency and staying close to the original source. 
In certain cases the historical authenticy was sacrificed 
in favour of an even typographic color.

This project required research of historic type specimens 
in search for the missing letterforms. The unsusual 
interpretaion of the Yen currency symbol can be found 
in typefaces of that period.

Designed by Olexa M.Volochay, Alexei Vanyashin for Cyreal.

Federant is a Unicode typeface family that supports 
languages that use the Latin script and its variants, and 
could be expanded to support other scripts.

More specifically, this release supports the following Unicode
ranges: Latin-1
