Wintler font

Wintler is a workhorse grotesque with a cold straightforward nature and neutral design. Its openness of forms originates from the award-winning Decutto typeface and is adapted for a more universal use.

The story of Wintler originates from a cases where designers tried to use the Decutto typeface not only for headings, but also for body text. Well, Decutto wasn't designed for that, because it built on straight simplified forms that looks too crisp in a body text. The goal of Wintler is to preserve the openness of Decutto's forms and gently translate it into a more universal grotesque. Therefore, its letter shape balances between simplified rectangularity and classic roundness. The font family also received a wide range of styles from Thin to Black, from Normal to Condensed, and from Upright to Italic, as well as a variable font with Width, Weight, and Italic axes. This rework makes Wintler good for both headings and body text.

In Cyrillic, the shape of some letters such as “б в д з л” moves away from square forms in order to diversify the texture of the text, using more ascenders, descenders, as well as more rounded and triangular shapes. Also, the letters “Д д” have an asymmetrical right descender, visually completing the group of letters like “ц щ”. In the same time, the other letters such as “г д ж и п т ц ш ш ю ю” have both square (default) and round (Bulgarian) forms. This approach is transitional and its goal is to use fewer square forms in modern Cyrillic.
