One of the most distinct pieces of typographic branding in recent years is Literata — the type family we created for all Google Play Books. Its combination of form and function came about by solving a serious challenge: reading a novel on any number of devices. It was so well received that Google asked TypeTogether for a serious update and to release it for free on Google Fonts. We’re happy to announce that version 2.1 was released in mid-2019, and that version 3 is well on its way. On the docket: increased language support, more styles, small caps, more glyphs, and the new golden child of typography — a variable font version! Refresh your memory about the original four-weight version here, dive into the major update details here, and of course get the free font family straight from us here.

Adi Stern and Veronika Burian just finished hosting an exhibition and presentation about the Noam Text family at TDC in New York. If you remember the original 2018 exhibition in Tel Aviv, this was an updated presentation and show, with some of the poster designers who live in New York in attendance. Additional posters showed a concise history of the Hebrew script and basic typographic explanation of the scripts. The exhibit is open until the end of January, so make an appointment to stop by.
