Introducing TT Travels Text—TypeType’s new text font based on the legendary TT Travels.
TT Travels Text is a geometric sans serif with wide proportions. When creating this font, our goal was to maintain the central idea and recognizable features of the familiar TT Travels, making it cleaner and more modern. As a result, we have an independent typeface that perfectly complements TT Travels Next as a pair and equally excels in solo work.
The key visual features of TT Travels Text are wide proportions and slightly squared forms of ovals. To make the typeface readable, we increased the height of lowercase letters and opened the aperture more compared to the original TT Travels. We also worked on the proportions and contours, slimmed down the oval shapes, and reworked the master weights to harmonize the text version and TT Travels Next as a pair. In addition, we removed ink traps in the bold font style, making the font’s appearance more neutral and modern.
The new TT Travels Text boasts numerous helpful OpenType features. Stylistic sets include softer, more neutral forms. The expanded ligature sets graphic is now calm and smooth, supporting the overall mood of the typeface. The typeface also includes a variable font with two axes of variation to enhance its application range even more.
Thanks to the visual traits we mentioned above, TT Travels Text can be used in running text as well as brand identity, web, and printing—as an independent graphic accent. The typeface is an ideal, well-balanced match for book and magazine layouts, poster design, and packaging. However, due to the font’s neutral character, the application range of TT Travels Text is almost limitless, and paired with TT Travels Next, the typeface unleashes its full potential.
TT Travels Text includes:
21 font styles: 10 roman, 10 italic, and one variable font with weight and slant axes of variation;
990 glyphs in each font style;
37 OpenType features with the possibility to replace certain glyphs with alternates;
230+ languages support.
TT Travels Text—a stylish text sans serif for any project!
