Neither Confirm Nor Deny

Neither Confirm Nor Deny or LTR NCND in short is derived by Erik van Blokland from his font FontFont published in 1991. By developing new method for interpolating rough and textured shapes, the typeface has made the leap to variable fonts. It uses its seamless interpolations to create even lighter and heavier weights at the extremes and countless cuts in between. The LTR NCND can be used in animations to quickly create very different moods: from an unimaginable future to an impossibly hopeful one. From large, short words to complex and detailed text. It is ready to create exciting compositions on the web, in motion design and of course as an eye-catching headline.

For decades the mechanical typewriter was the central processing unit of bureaucrats, lawyers, dictators, and authors alike. It was the creator of all documents: contracts and diplomas, correspondence, ransom notes, invoices, and all the news. Its linguistic percussion was a signal: here we create facts and order!

Now we see only the shortcomings of this once-amazing apparatus: complicated to fix, heavy to transport, and where would you buy ribbons? Nonetheless, the typewritten word is anchored in our collective subconscious. This is a new chapter for this particular textured typewriter font.

The initial typeface, FontFont, was developed by Erik van Blokland briefly after the fall of the Berlin Wall. The structured typewriter font was created when he, a boy from the West-side, met an East-side typewriter.
