5.28.13: New Font Release: The Sketchnote Typeface
Delve Fonts is proud to announce the release of Mike Rohde’s The Sketchnote Typeface. Born of necessity, Rohde needed a series of hand-drawn fonts to produce his recent book, The Sketchnote Handbook. Be­cause of its origin, the typeface was designed to be practical, to convey the human character in Rohde’s handwriting and unique hand-drawn letter­ing. The family is comprised of four fonts: Sketchnote Text in Reg­ular, Bold and Italic, plus Sketchnote Square.

Sketchnote Text is a friendly, casual script with a bouncy baseline, a warm texture, and multiple alternates of characters for a more natural, hand­written appear­ance. Sketchnote Square is a bold, somewhat com­press­ed headline type made to complement the three text fonts. Drawn instead of written, the characters in Square have neat little happen­stance voids within the strokes. Square also features a selection of handy icons, rules, and arrows. Sketchnote can fulfill the demands of a variety of design projects where a handcrafted aesthetic and ease-of-use is desired. Learn More >



2.12.13: New Font Release: Rieven Roman
Delve Fonts is excited to announce the release of Rieven Roman. For len­gthi­er passages of text, where often the more familiar venetian style letter­forms are preferred, designer Steven Skaggs created Rieven Roman. This addition to the Rieven family can be used hand-in-hand with its pre­decess­or, Rieven Uncial. Rieven Roman and its accompanying italic are brilliant new variants based on Rieven Uncial. Included in the Rieven Ro­man package is Rieven Ornaments, a font comprised of over 180 useful symbols, circled numbers, arrows, and decorative ornaments. Learn More >

6.11.12: New Font Release: Piston
Delve Fonts is pleased to announce the release of Piston, by Steven Skaggs. Inspired by the industrial revolution, a time that witnessed the ultimate development in steam, die­sel and oil: engines of all kinds. Piston cap­tures the nitty-gritty of a hard-boned indomitable age, bound­less in its faith in the technologies of iron and steel, tempered by half-remembered neo-classical details such as the verticality of neo-gothic windows, and finely detailed fin­ials.

5.24.12: New Font Release: Oktal Mono
Delve Fonts is proud to release Oktal Mono, by Joachim Müller-Lancé and Erik Adigard. A monospaced type family composed entirely of mono-linear and modular structure, Oktal Mono came to life as a formal design experiment wherein a type designer and a graphic designer collaborate each in their own capacity, from within their respective disciplines. The typeface was systematically built using a grid and an octagonal base, determined to be most appropriate for the average text sizes. The Oktal Mono family includes: Regular, Italic, Bold, and Bold Italic. Learn More >
