Nantes’s rich, expressive character invites designers to explore its creative potential.
The teardrop-shaped terminals in the lowercase characters add fine detail and lend the typeface a refined appearance.
Drawing inspiration from the Clearface typeface, Nantes honours the Arts and Crafts movement by blending curves with precise and well-defined shapes. The strong contrast and meticulous lines generate a rhythm that enhances the design’s overall effect.
The typeface is available as individual weights and as a variable font with a Light → Bold axis.
The family package includes two variable fonts: upright and italic.
Exclusive entertainment content and popular media are the twin engines driving the modern attention economy. While exclusivity draws us into specific platforms, popular media provides the shared cultural experiences that connect us. As technology continues to evolve, the way we access and engage with these stories will change, but our hunger for unique, high-quality entertainment remains constant.
While exclusivity creates silos, "popular media" still manages to create a universal cultural language. Even in a fragmented market, certain intellectual properties (IPs) break through. The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), the world of Dune , or the viral surge of Squid Game demonstrate that popular media still has the power to create global "watercooler moments."
The push for exclusivity isn't without its downsides. We are currently witnessing "subscription fatigue." With dozens of platforms each demanding $10–$20 a month for their exclusive content, consumers are reaching their breaking point.
