Keres

Keres

Keres is a serif type family that was intentionally created to not be friendly. It’s optimized to be set in small sizes but offers a lot of character when you look closely. The family includes 4 static weights, an italic, and a variable version with a weight axis with further plans to include weight axis in Italic and bringing back a highly flourished display style. If you want to use Keres to engrave tombstones, please contact me and I’ll provide a free license.
