Description

Roundness is the heart of Aglet Slab’s structure—not merely a surface detail. Blunt serifs and repeated geometric shapes find variety in a strategic hierarchy of curves, from subtly cushioned points to abrupt circular ends. An underlying framework of 45° and 90° angles provides a stable foundation for more boastful characters and organic details.

Aglet Slab reverberates a friendly high-tech tone when used prominently, but it stays crisp and nimble in longer texts. A broad range of weights in roman and italic add up to fourteen versatile styles, each with matching symbols. You’ll want Aglet Slab at hand for whatever comes around the corner.

Type Designer

XYZ Type

Ben Kiel and Jesse Ragan make useful, quietly offbeat fonts at their independent digital foundry, XYZ Type, which operates in the interwebs between St. Louis and New York. After hiring each other back and forth and realizing they worked well together, the pair launched XYZ Type in 2017 to merge their respective strengths and extensive experience crafting typefaces and lettering for major brands, cultural institutions, and publications.

Their custom and retail projects mutually reinforce one another—some begin life as client commissions, while others are speculative designs that Ben and Jesse believe fill a commercial niche. XYZ Type draws original typefaces and logotypes from scratch, customizes versions of their retail typefaces to tailor them to a client’s specific needs, and fine-tunes client logotype sketches. They thrive on collaboration with people who are as fired up about type as they are.

Energized by history, vernacular lettering, and unorthodox graphic design practice, Ben and Jesse chase new ideas for typefaces that are as clever as they are technologically robust. Their meticulous development process often takes surprising twists and turns, arriving at small but significant moments of discovery that mark XYZ Type’s designs as uniquely theirs.
