This announcement is interesting but it's unfortunate that the visual balance in the first rendered image is troubled.
In particular, the uppercase "N", the lowercase "e", and the lowercase "t" do not harmonize. The kerning between the "N" and the "e" needs tweaking.
This imbalance is especially noticeable because the balance between the characters "tflix" is magnificent, a small textual portrait practically worth framing on its own.
- bshimmin 9y agoI felt like this too. I'm also confused by the "subtle cinemascopic curve" at the top of the "t" which doesn't appear to be replicated anywhere else in the font.
- Froyoh 9y agoMaybe it's just you and a small handful of people, but I don't find any fault in the typeface. Beautiful!
- Terretta 9y agoAgree. Terrible first sample. Especially on the sample shows, rendered too thin on most, feels cheap, super generic, like a poor man’s Arial. Could maybe somehow be for legibility on really bad TVs?
