Based heavily on Gill especially in the mid weights, Astoria has a subtle top left serif which makes it not quite a Roman and not quite a Sans. Designed specificaly as a text face it still works very well as a headline font.
The ALAN MEEKS.COM typeface foundry was founded in 2008, since then it has been responsible for 25 faces including all genres of design sans, roman, script, decorative etc. and have sold extensively throughout the world. I work alone so all of the design, production and font making is done by me with the exception of “Independence Script,’ which was a collaboration with top British calligrapher Satwinder Sehmi. Each font is based on the standard 250 character set with occasional alternatives and, often, non ranging numerals. All fonts are available from most font manufacturers and myself.
