DGV Free Font: Basic Light

An offering from Büro Boris Dworschak, it’s a spare, structural line with curved corners, and it’s free from Dei Gestalten Verlag.

DGV Basic Light

This go-around’s free font from Die Gestalten Verlag is Büro Boris Dworschak’s Basic Light. DGV has this to say about that:

Basic is a visually reduced font that has strong graphic letters. The rounded edges make the letters appear playful in big point sizes and ‘basic’ in small. Basic Light Ltd is the perfect free trial to play around with and see how Basic can transform your graphic language.

The font’s designers have this to add:

“Basic” is a reduced font developed with a strong grid. The results are straight and graphic with strong letters that inspire engraving templates or an architectural stencil typeface.

When we looked at it, we had the idea of the old Keufel & Esser “Leroy” scribers and old-style engraved desk plates, amongst other things. Whatever your impressions are, DGV offers you a limited free text edition for play via this link, here.
