Our award-winning Noort typeface family can now communicate in a new script — Bengali. Juan Bruce’s energetic and dynamic text typeface is TypeTogether’s very first Bengali design. With its five weights, unique suite of icons, and keen attention to typographic detail, Noort is all set to become your go-to choice for typesetting long–form Bengali publications. Read the story of Noort Bengali here.

We’ve packed Noort Bengali with OpenType magic that brings typographic finesse to bilingual text — be it Bengali conjuncts and width-matched vowel marks, script-specific punctuation marks, or proportional and tabular figures in both scripts. And we’ve included icons that share the design’s warm, analogue sensibility, which can be called up simply by typing their name and choosing the correct stylistic set.

In late 2018 our Chinese partners FounderType approached us with a very interesting project — redesigning a type family for Geely, one of the most important car manufacturers in the world. What started as rather technical work allowed us to learn some fascinating facts about branding for the automobile industry, hybrid analogue, digital user interfaces, and legibility.
