FontFont is giving away Reminga OT Bold Italic for a limited time. It’s a great looking typeface (did I use the word correctly?).

After Dutch holey cheese, there now is a Dutch font with holes as well.
Appealing ideas are often simple: how much of a letter can be removed while maintaining readability? After extensive testing with all kinds of shapes, the best results were achieved using small circles. After lots of late hours (and coffee) this resulted in a font that uses up to 20% less ink. Free to download, free to use

Inspired by Albert-Jan Pool’s DIN typeface (which was a redesign of the german DIN 1941) and the bestseller Gill Sans by Eric Gill.
I tried to smooth and blend the harsh and letterhead style of DIN with the elegance and roundness of Gill Sans.
