Cham is a work-in-progress display font based on the fascia lettering on Coleman's Fireproof Depository (c.1875) on Northumberland Street in Liverpool. The family contains five weights & widths. Unlike a typical sans-serif type family each has a different structural logic based on its size and style originally rendered on the building. In print and digital this creates a diverse but cohesive font. Also included are a range of 'Arts & Crafts' style alternate characters which make reference to the time when Coleman's Fireproof Depository was built. The beta version of the font (which comes with the five weights, basic Latin, punctuation, two styles of numbers and alternates) is available now at Typeverything.
