Trabis is the new typeface by Axel Pelletanche-Thévenart, designer of Knif Mono. It has been baptized with a Latin name that refers to a solid piece of wood used for structural purposes.
Its blurred serifs give to Trabis an oldstyle typewriter flavour, although the structures of its glyphs are rooted into our 2019 digital world.
As all its “A is for” type foundry’s fellows, Trabis has been refined so that it works perfectly for continuous reading, but its soul shows the best when used as display, showing its steep lowercase “r” and some of its big-headed capitals.
