Penultimate

Digest

Penultimate reimagines Franklin Gothic through the lens of Western Classical music, translating its mechanical rhythm into a bespoke display typeface driven by fluid contrast and expressive movement. This exploration extends the visual language of its inspiration by reworking proportions, terminals, and counterforms to unlock a more dynamic tone. Penultimate seamlessly merges classical aesthetics with contemporary design, the resulting typeface and identity embody the essence of both worlds.
