ALKES • DECRIPTION

AlkesNamed after a star and inspired by the cosmos, Alkes traveled a long way from a graduation project to a published multiscript serif type family. Designed with the intention of harmonising between three scripts — Latin, Cyrillic and Greek, the contemporary, yet well defined humanist serif combines the best out of the digital and analog worlds.

Featuring a generous x-height, wide letter spacing, large open coun-ters and angled stress contrast, Alkes is highly e�ective for editorials and publishing, where long texts and legibility are the key forces. Its attractive details, calligraphic structure and asymmetrical serifs shine through in the larger sizes and make Alkes suitable for headlines.

Alkes has a pull with editorial designers, graphic designers and publishers who aim for a clear structure, hierarchy and coherent non-Latin scripts for both print and on-screen environments, in order to achieve otherworldly designs!

alkes, alpha crateris (α crateris, abbreviated alpha crt, α crt) A giant star cooler and larger than the Sun located about 43.2 parsecs* (141 ly) away in the constellation of crater.

crater is a small constellation in the southern celestial hemisphere. Its name is the latinization of the Greek krater, a type of cup used to water down wine. One of the 48 constellations listed by the second-century astronomer Ptolemy, it depicts a cup that has been associated with the god Apollo and is perched on the back of Hydra the water snake.

auriga (â-ri´-ga) (Face Northwest.)A line drawn from δ to α ursæ majoris, and prolonged about 45°, ends near the bright capella, in auriga, a star of the first magnitude, and one of the most brilliant in the heavens. It is unmistakable, having no rival in brightness near it. auriga is a beautiful and conspicuous constellation. It is characterized by a clearly defined pentagon. Note the three fourth-mag-nitude stars near capella known as the Kids.

The star β is common to auriga and

taurus, being the former’s right foot

and the latter’s northern horn.

The field within the pentagon is

particularly rich in clusters. capella

forms a rude square with polaris, ε

cassiopeiæ, and ο ursæ majoris, and

forms an equilateral triangle with

betelgeuze in orion, and the pleiades

in taurus. A line from θ to α aurigæ

prolonged about 20°.

parsec — a unit of length used to measure the large distances to astronomical objects outside the Solar System. Approximately equal to 31 trillion kilometres (19 trillion miles), or about 3.3 light-years.
