Hidde is a neo-grotesk typeface with visible and pronounced gaps between its joints, both on the upper and lowercase characters. Using these letterforms as a foundation, the related roman version has been designed for more standard usage. Stencils, developed as gaps that are applied to the joints of letters in order to allow printing of display size letterforms on outdoor surfaces, here become features with a new sculptural dimension, beyond functionality, to embody meaning past the linguistic. Hidde is a typeface that hides ink from the letterforms to reveal another layer of interpretation. Hidde has 258 glyphs with extended Latin characters, lining figures, alternates, punctuation, and symbols. The extended version includes 2 styles: Book, and Wax, with Desktop (OTF), Web (WOFF), and App (TTF) font formats for Print, Web, App, and Broadcast use. The Desktop (OTF) format, with a limited character set (128 glyphs), is available to request/use free for self-initiated, non-profit, and cultural projects. Typeface designed by Matteo Bettini.
