Zirbal: A Mountain Pine-Inspired Typeface by T1 Foundry (t1.foundry).⁠ ⁠ T1 Zirbal , a new sans serif display and headline font from T1⁠ Foundry by TYPE01, takes its name from the Zirbel, or Swiss stone pine, a white pine found at high altitudes in Central Europe’s Alps and the Carpathian Mountains.⁠ ⁠ T1 Zirbal’s creator Daniel Stuhlpfarrer (daniel_stuhlpfarrer) is an Austrian-born typeface designer who grew up in Styria, also known as Zirbenland (“the land of the Swiss stone pine”). During a recent trip home from Berlin where he now resides, Stuhlpfarrer began sketching out a typeface inspired by the trees he knows so well.⁠ “I was traveling home during the spring, excited to be going back to the mountains,” he says. “To pass the time on the train I started sketching out letters, and quickly had the idea of a chunky round typeface that was also somewhat sharp, like the Zirbel pine cone’s notches.”⁠ ⁠ Full read > type-01.com⁠ ⁠ Thank you Angela Riechers for this write up⁠ ⁠ #type01 #t...
