“Base” is the name of a typeface conceived and designed by Franco Cervi. The project sums up a minimalist approach, formal rigor and an aptitude for experimentation. The original presentation brochure, besides showing the complete set of the designed characters – including glyphs – also illustrates their graphic personality, the constructive anatomy, the geometric ratios that generate the kerning. The appendix contains meta-graphic applications.
