Fenwick

Step back in time with Fenwick, a typeface that breathes new life into the rich typographic traditions of late 19th-century Ontario. This is a bridge between eras, seamlessly blending the robust character of gothic sans-serifs with the refined grace of vintage serif display fonts and the precision of elegant clock numerals.

At first glance, Fenwick might evoke memories of time-worn signage on historic Ontario buildings. But look closer, and you’ll discover a typeface that defies easy categorization. Its subtle nods to serif display fonts and clock digits create a unique personality that’s both familiar and fresh, capturing the spirit of innovation that defined Ontario’s industrial heyday. Fenwick doesn’t just mimic the past—it reimagines it for modern design needs. With seven distinct styles, including Light, Regular, and Bold (each with matching italics), plus an engraved all-caps style, Fenwick offers a full spectrum of design possibilities. From delicate invitations to bold headlines, from body text to display type, this versatile family adapts to any design challenge with period-appropriate flair.

For designers who appreciate the finer details, Fenwick’s proportional old-style numerals—easily accessible in OpenType-savvy applications—add an extra layer of authenticity to your vintage-inspired creations. It’s these thoughtful touches that transform Fenwick from a mere typeface into a storytelling tool, one that speaks volumes about Ontario’s rich cultural and industrial heritage. But Fenwick’s appeal isn’t limited by borders. Supporting a wide range of Latin-based European languages, this typeface is ready to bring its vintage charm to global audiences. Whether you’re designing for a local Ontario brewery or an international steampunk convention, Fenwick communicates with clarity and character across linguistic boundaries.

Fenwick is more than just a nod to the past—it’s a celebration of enduring design principles reimagined for today’s creative needs. It’s for designers who understand that true innovation often comes from a deep appreciation of history. It’s for brands that want to convey a sense of timeless quality, and for projects that seek to bridge the gap between heritage and contemporary appeal.

So, when your design calls for something with roots and wings, when you need to convey both tradition and forward-thinking, turn to Fenwick. It’s not just about choosing a font—it’s about crafting a visual narrative that resonates across time.
