![]() ![]() Additionally, Bree was designed in variable font format for those who want complete control over the font’s appearance while simultaneously saving digital weight in the form of kilobytes and megabytes. More than that, Vietnamese support was added to Bree Latin, and the Bree Greek and Bree Cyrillic scripts were designed from scratch to parallel the Latin’s tone. A few shapes were updated or added (the ‘k’ and German capital ‘ß’), two entirely new weights were added (Book and Book Italic), and spacing was perfected. All this adds up to a big personality, so even when set in small text there is no skimming past the words Bree voices.In 2019, the Bree font family got a huge update. Bree has a touch of cheekiness, a wide stance for each character, and an extra-large x-height. Alternates of these letters are available when a more neutral look is desired. As such, some of its most characteristic features are the single-story ‘a’, the cursive ‘e’, the outstroke curves of ‘v’ and ‘w’, the flourished ‘Q’, and the fluid shapes of ‘g’, ‘y’, and ‘z’. Bree is clearly influenced by handwriting. ![]() As an upright italic, Bree shows a pleasant mix of rather unobtrusive capitals with more vivid lowercase letters, giving text a lively appearance. The MLC slightly corrected the sizes of ‘5’ and the ampersand, as well as the thickness of ‘W’ to better match the rest of the letters–though they will still match the original letters enough for final dates.The Bree font family is a spry sans serif by Veronika Burian and José Scaglione that delivers a spirited look and feel for branding and headline usage. ‘4’ has a much lower crossbar than other versions. ‘6’ and ‘9’ have very small loops, which give them a longer feel. The top circle of ‘8’ is much smaller, and the bottom much larger than usual, giving the two loops a greater contrast in size. The numerals vary in height, especially ‘5’, which is much larger than the others, and is also much bolder at the top than at its base. The punctuation and ampersand are very different from the ScotchKut Common Gothic, having square punctuation instead of round, and the ampersand being much bolder. The ends of the curves of ‘C’, ‘G’, ‘J’, ‘S’, ‘2’, ‘3’, ‘6’ and ‘9’ are slightly shorter than the typical Common Gothic. ‘B’ has a much smaller top loop than usual, and ‘W’ slightly more thick than the rest of the letters. The legs of ‘K’ and ‘R’, are on much shallower angles than is typical, shortening the width of the letters. Overall the alphabet has much less space between the letters (referred to as tracking in the print industry) as is usually given to these Common Gothic alphabets. There are many noticeable differences between this version and other Common Gothic style memorial industry alphabets. The alphabet was later used as the starting point for the PMD Common Gothic alphabet, and will match very closely, if not exactly.
