Neptune is a large family of geometric sans serif fonts. Its designer Gaetan Baehr has created 12 styles: six different weights, ranging from Extralight to Extrabold.

Each has an upright and an oblique font on offer. Letters in all of Neptunes weights are drawn with virtually mono-linear strokes. Its lowercase letters have a tall x-height, but still leave enough room for the fonts diacritical marks.

These are actually quite large; theyll always be noticed, even in small sizes.

Neptunes a and g both have single-storey forms. The dots on the i, j, and diacritics are round, as are the punctuation marks, too. Despite being a geometric sans, Neptune features letters that break away somewhat from what previous fonts in that style have offered.

The Qs tail has been simplified into a short, vertical stroke. The strokes on both the S and the s terminate in vertical cuts, instead of having horizontal or diagonal terminals.

The lowercase k and t each have traits that come from our alphabets handwritten origins.

These details give text set in Neptune a different feeling from other geometric sans serifs.

Neptune is an excellent choice for both corporate design and editorial design projects, both because of its range of weights as well as its legibility in text.

Interlink is a single-weight, all-caps stencil typeface designed by the French designer Julie Soudanne.

Its forms are monolinear, and they have the feeling of a contemporary-style sans serif.

Interlinks letters are nice and geometric, but they are not mono-width. Nevertheless, Soudanne constructed many of the characters so that they feel like they might be equally wide, even though they are not.

Aside from the stencil-optic, Interlinks best feature is its unique series of 68 ligatures.

This large set includes both two-letter and three-letter ligatures. The OpenType Ligatures feature is so important to this design that the letters ability to link-up to each other is referenced in the typefaces very name: Interlink is, basically, a palette of inter-linking letters for designers to use in display sizes.

Interlink may be used very well in headlines, or for logo design. The typeface may be paired with virtually any kind of body text fonts, be these serif or sans.
