Leonidas Thorson
Leonidas Thorson is the latest (and last) of my fonts with which I explored Nordic rune shapes (along with Latin Runes and Runelike). This time, as a result of my long-standing interest in the subject, the Latin script has a form inspired by both runes and ancient Greek script. The blend is subtle and was developed with as much care and design instinct as I could muster. The end result of my efforts are these nice and legible letters, which I think have their own unique character.
Version 1.0 of the font was developed at the very beginning of 2024. The free version is available here and contains 125 glyphs. I also offer an extended version of the font, which has 263 glyphs and goes with a fairly straightforward commercial license. You buy it, you can use it for whatever you want.
Please keep in mind that I am not a professional font designer, not even a hobbyist. It's just that sometimes I have a surge of creativity here and there, and that's it.
