Reina Font Family | 12 FONTS OTF
Reina is Sproviero’s didone of the year. We recommend seeing its user’s guide.
Inspired in the sweet letters of calligraphy and typography masters
of our past; such as Didot, Bodoni and the incredible Herb Lubalin, its
aim was to incorporate the decorative accolades from blackletter and
copperplate styles of calligraphy into a Modern Roman typeface.
Reina reflects sovereignty due to the enveloping atmosphere and the
sensation of greatness that can be felt when using it. It has an unique
way of standing over paper and screen, being its swashes responsible of
an extreme elegance.
Similar to what Lian did in his last font Breathe,
Reina was designed to be playful yet formal: While none of its
alternates are activated it can be useful for short to medium length
texts; and when the user chooses to make use of its open-type decorative
glyphs, it can be useful for headlines with dazzling results.
TECHNICAL
Reina is a family with many members. In order to achieve
better results when printing, Lian took his time to design the necessary
styles: Reina 72 Pro, prepared for display sizes; Reina 36 Pro, for
medium sizes; and Reina 12 Pro, the best for text or decorative words in
small size.
Each of these members have variants inside, which are
open-type programmed: The user decides which glyph to alternate,
equalizing the amount of decoration wanted.
Reina Engraved Pro has the same features than the variants mentioned above.
The family also contains variants which were made
exclusively for decoration. These are: Reina Words, a set of the most
common words used in english, german, italian, french and spanish; Reina
Capitals, which consists in a big set of ornamented capitals; and Reina
Fleurons, those little friends which always help to embellish our work.
