Designed by Phaedra Charles and Flavia Zimbardi of Undercase Type, Fraunces is a vibrant, modern "Old Style" soft-serif typeface that proudly prioritizes personality over clinical perfection. Taking artistic cues from the expressive, heavily stylized 20th-century typefaces like Windsor and Cooper Black, Fraunces beautifully revives a sense of tactile, hand-drawn warmth and playful nostalgia. As an advanced variable font, it introduces innovative custom axes like Softness—which controls the fluid, organic "inkiness" of the letterforms—and Wonk, which introduces charming, unconventional glyph variations like uniquely leaning stems and flagged ball terminals. Used as the main editorial typeface for a creative agency portfolio, Fraunces acts as a powerful statement piece; its heavy, high-contrast weights deliver an unapologetically bold, editorial confidence, proving that design can be both highly sophisticated and deeply human.
