Fedra Serif and Fedra Sans (2005) was originally designed by Peter Biľak initially for the printed version of the Collins dictionary. The typeface is low contrast, with short ascenders and descenders and open counters, intended to work in tiny text sizes. Expanding the project into Hebrew and Arabic (2015-16) presented the possibility of bringing to life trilingual typographical projects, an essential cultural need in Israel. The challenge was to create a cohesive connection between three different Alphabets without losing each script’s cultural code.
Fedra Sans and Fedra Serif are based on the same skeleton and formally relate to each other without losing the original characteristics of the design.
The variable version was created with four masters for each style (Upright and Italic), utilizing two axes: width and weight.
