Fagun Font Family

Fagun Font is a sans-serif font family inspired by 19th-century type styles, particularly the work of William Caslon. It was designed by Jonathan Hill of The Northern Block, and released in 2022. Fagun is available in 14 styles, with weights ranging from Thin to Black and italics for each weight. The method combines broad nib pen-style strokes with straight-line geometry to form a compelling and coherent typeface suitable for long lines of text. Each character has the right balance of diagonal contrast, which creates a pleasant contradiction between internal and external lines. The result is an original design with incredible clarity and usability across many text-based scenarios.

The font includes over 700 characters per style, seven weights with matching italics. OpenType features consist of nine number variations inferiors, superiors, fractions, tabular, lining, circled, and old style. It also has alternate lowercase a, e, g, l, y, small caps, and language support covering Western, Southern, and Central Europe.

This version is only a demo version with limited features that may only be used for personal purposes. If you’re interested in using Fagun for commercial projects, take a look at the full version.
