2014 Gerard Unger Scholarship results

The young and very talented Roxane Gataud convinced our selection team with her project, Bely, which was conceived during her recent postgraduate course at the Ésad, Amiens, France. So far, Bely, which she optimised for editorial use, is comprised of text and display variants and includes support for Cyrillic. 

Roxane says she drew inspiration from Dwiggins’s design principles and the classical proportions of Garamond to create a highly legible typeface with a pleasant colour and texture. This makes it a perfect fit for TypeTogether’s growing library.
