Yuni Slab
A wood type-inspired charismatic slab serif with unexpected details.

Wholesome and pleasing at first sight, Yuni is not for the faint of heart

Yuni Slab is a compressed slab serif rooted in vague references of compressed slab serif wood types like, for example; Clarendon, Antique, Ionic, Doric or Franklin Type Foundry’s Antique Condensed.

Yuni Slab’s chunky serifs, confident ball terminals, big friendly dots and seemingly naive serif distribution—partly inspired by 17th century France’s legendary Romain du Roi—make this slab a peculiar and surprisingly friendly yet kind of facetious companion. Wholesome and pleasing at first sight, Yuni is not for the faint of heart: it features kinks and quirks, rough edges and an unapologetic curvature inspired by its antonym—the high-contrast serif.

From tender Hair to useful Medium or heavyset Extrabold, Yuni’s six weights demand to be used big! Whether for headlines in editorial design, grindcore LP album covers, festival posters, the title sequences of vampire horror movies set in the swamps of 1870s Florida, or wood type museum identities, Yuni will catch your attention and massage your eyeballs to completion.

With more than 900 glyphs per style, including native-approved Cyrillic and a broad Latin character set, Yuni speaks more than 270 languages. Steep accents, multiple figure sets (circled ones included), a finely-curated selection of arrows, and OpenType features like case-sensitive punctuation, contextual alternate forms and alternative highlights for dynamic typesetting are some of the typographic extras this tall attraction can use to cater to your headline needs.

Yuni Slab is just a small part of a bigger system that will see the light of day in the not-so-distant future. Well, if there is one. Until then, enjoy the present! Preferably with Yuni Slab.
