Tsukushi Old Gothic UL

筑紫オールドゴシック UL

About fonts

This is a completely new typeface designed with the image of the Gothic typeface that existed in the era of metal type. One of the characteristics of the Tsukushi typeface is the large amount of information that the characters contain. This typeface contains the largest amount of information of all the Tsukushi typefaces, and the letters themselves speak eloquently.
The organic intonation of both the vertical and horizontal strokes, and the tight bosom, give it the most elegance among Gothic fonts. The difference from other typefaces is obvious just by the combination of words using only kanji.

Tsukushi Old Gothic UL'' is so thin that it looks blurry, and we are conscious of the attractive expression of the letters when they are used in large letters, such as on signboards and titles. This Gothic typeface is an unprecedented new approach, with an "old" Styles and the taste of metal type, while being extremely thin.
