1769® Display – Untouched ancient curves preserved in memories.
Elegant as an 18th century feather throw, 1769® Display is harmoniously inspired by the handwritten curves of the Romantic movement of the time. It also announces the birth of Napoleon Bonaparte, an emperor as fascinating as it was repulsive but, without a doubt, an emblematic figure of those times. The delicacy and roundness of its ligatures are a symbol of grace, sensitivity and nobility. 1769® Display is, on its own, a faithful transcription of an important part of the history of France, its culture and its rich heritage. It is with a modern look that we update this old style with an inked beak depositing bold and contrasting fills on thick paper. 1769® Display is a well-cut classic. Its “C” full of class and its “A” charismatic, an alphabet thought out like an architect, it is the announcement of a Revolution.
1769® Display – Inspired by vintage didones.
First carved in stone by the Romans to take advantage of the reflection of light in typographic grooves, serifs were at the heart of all typefaces used in printing. The didones will reign over the 19th century and agree the description of characters “à la française”. They are printed on laid paper, in the middle of the stretch marks of the transparent screen, using a fast drying ink. Burrs are prohibited by their delicacy. They will be abandoned when the screens arrive because of their exaggerated finesse. The poor quality computer display erases the discreet hairlines of the didones. Their perfect linearity and the aliasing caused by the pixels do not match. We will wait several years before observing their great return.
Use
Friend of the traditional “French-style” sewn binding, 1769® Display also adapts to your visual identities. A touch of charm and finesse to make your designs a reflection of your mastery. The Parisian, the classic, the classy. Her cousin Bodoni is already the ambassador of glossy fashion magazines, of the canons of beauty and even of Nirvana (rock’n’roll and nobility are ultimately not opposites). Between haute couture refinement and American grunge, elegance makes its place as an ideology and a strength of spirit. Finally, 1769® Display could quickly become the new symbol of chic.
And also
What if we found it more impactful? Less discreet? The Kassi® is the quintessential eccentric typography, it can be seen, it knows it and it says it. I’m looking for a charismatic typo.

FAQs
What does personal use mean?
All our fonts come with a trial version. You can use these files, which include the complete set of glyphs. This usage is limited to unpublished work only. If you publish your project, you must obtain a license suitable for type usage.
Who should purchase the typography license? The designer or the client?
Anyone using the font needs a license. If only the designer has access to it, then they are the only one required to purchase a license. If the client also needs to use the font on their end, both parties must acquire a license. The client should choose the appropriate license based on the criteria outlined in the purchase form.
What does the Global License include?
It covers all uses except for logo creation, merchandising, and media/cinema usage. It includes:
• The Desktop License
• The Web License
• The App License
• The Social Media License
Do I need a separate license for each project ?
Yes, you generally need a separate license for each of your projects.
Using a single license across multiple projects or use cases with distinct licensing requirements may lead to compliance issues. For instance, if you use a web license for multiple websites that collectively exceed the allowed page views, you would be violating the license terms.
Do I need a separate license for each use case?
Yes, you generally need a separate license for each of use cases.
Licenses specify the permitted uses of the font, and if you plan to integrate it in multiple ways, you may require multiple licenses. For example, creating a logo and a website would require purchasing two different licenses.
When should I purchase a Logo License?
A logo license is required for each company logo that incorporates the font. This license allows you to use the logo in any context. The license coverage must reflect the total number of employees in the company using the logo, as specified in the purchase form. The starting price is €200 and varies depending on your company’s size.
What does the Merchandising License cover?
The merchandising license covers your creations used on products intended for sale (goodies, clothing, etc.). This does not apply if the font is only used in the company’s logo and you already hold a logo license.
What does the Media/Cinema License cover?
You will need this broadcast license for an advertising campaign aired on television, a spot shown on TV media, or any other use on TV/cinema screens. Please contact us for more details about this license.
What font file formats do you provide with a license purchase?
Each license purchase includes the full set of purchased font families in the following formats: OTF, WOFF, and WOFF2.
