Baltimore Fonts
11:07 PM, September 13, 2005
More on the Baltimore redesign front: Jean François Porchez designed the fonts for the new Sun. The family is called Mencken (after the famed Baltimore journalist), and Porchez says it's "a sort of contemporary Didot" which moves to something more old-style in its text version and keeps a big x-height on the head version to ensure strong presence in headlines.

I bet Mencken would be absolutely thrilled to know his name graces a font in a redesign. After all, he was all about the visuals, you know.
