Codec is a geometric sans serif type system, designed by Cosimo Lorenzo Pancini with Francesco Canovaro and Andrea Tartarelli. Codec provides you with two coherent variant fonts built on the same base skeleton: Codec Cold and Codec Warm.
In Codec Cold, the terminals are always cut parallel or perpendicular to the baseline, emphasizing geometry and giving the typeface a more constructed look. In Codec Warm, on the contrary, open diagonal cuts and two-storey letterforms give the typeface a slightly more humanist look and a gentler, warmer text feeling.
Both Codec Cold and Codec Warm come with a wide range of glyphs for language coverage, including Cyrillic and Greek alphabets, and with open-type features, such as small caps, positional numerals, and swash forms.
Codec typefaces also include over a hundred variant ligature and alternate glyphs. These glyphs, usually available as discretionary ligatures, have been made permanently active in the two Codec Logo subfamilies, designed for display use and logo design, and thus available with a bolder weight range and tighter metrics. Codec Logo Cold makes the cold geometry alive with funky ligatures, while Codec Logo Warm randomly stretches characters, allowing for quick, unexpected solutions in logo design and display type treatment.
