Efficient and gruff, Interstate has become a favorite for branding, packaging, publications, and more. The family is a reinterpretation of Highway Gothic, which has been the official typeface for American highway signage for decades. Its design is ultimately based on signage alphabets developed in the late 1940s by Dr. Theodore Forbes, assisted by J.E. Penton and E.E. Radek.
Frere-Jones Type is an independent type design practice in New York City, founded and led by Tobias Frere-Jones. With twenty-six years of experience in print and digital environments, we create original typefaces for retail licensing and client commissions. We believe that type exists to solve problems, and beauty is always part of the solution.
