• Short description:Perfection is immediately achievable. It requires only that we embrace ambiguity. Ambiguity, the type family, exists in a flexible design space, opposing and blending the traditional with the radical and the thrifty with the generous. The result is a font family with a standard weight axis (thin to black) and a social axis (conservative to radical). In Ambiguity Tradition the letterform proportions are traditional (Roman inscriptional forms in the caps and Renaissance calligraphy in the lowercase). It�s conventional and comforting. Ambiguity Radical reverses those proportions�wide becomes slender and slender becomes wide. It�s contrarian and alluring. Ambiguity Thrift gathers all of the slender forms. It�s conservative, economical. Ambiguity Generous gathers all of the wide forms. It�s liberal and expansive. And Ambiguity Normate is the middle of the road�an artificial blend of wide and slender. It�s indefinite. Ambiguity is neither consciously ugly nor overly concerned with beauty. It is an attainable utopia.
