CONCEPT:
Rector is a type system consisting of four display styles and twelve serif styles, both intended for use at 16 points or more. The Serif styles feature high-contrast letterforms with sharp serifs, while the Display styles play with the idea of outlines and inlines, but in an unexpected way. The letterforms are proportioned and have some details that could be called traditional, but they are drawn in a way that reveals their digital and contemporary upbringing.
