I was inspired to create the Rainier type family during my summer back home in the Pacific Northwest. The concept behind it may be simple - a hand crafter font family - but what it delivers is quite complex! Here is a breakdown of everything you get:

FONTS: 2 sub-families with unique styles in 4 weights, and one set of graphic Ornaments

Rainier North 100 (light)
Rainier North 300 (regular)
Rainier North 500 (bold)
Rainier North 700 (black)
Rainier Ornaments
Rainier West 100 (light)
Rainier West 300 (regular)
Rainier West 500 (bold)
Rainier West 700 (black)

OPENTYPE: In each family, there are tons of opentype options, offering lots of customizable opportunities (in order to access all these goodies, you must be using Illustrator, Photoshop, Indesign or Publisher)

Contextual Alternatives: because Rainier is 100% handmade, each letter has three subtle variations, this way it keeps that authentic hand-drawn look
Swashes: a full alphabet with special descending swashes, as well as start and end swashes for capitals and small caps
Titling Alternatives: a full character set just to help with readability! Meant for captions or smaller text, these letterforms are easy on the eye and a great compliment to the regular alphabet
Stylistic Alternatives: for a little fun, this character set offers a unified cap height, no matter what case you are using (all caps, small caps or lowercase)
Discretionary Ligatures: created only for capitals, this feature takes specific letter pairs and creates a unique ligature between them

To get a better understanding of everything, please check out (and print if you so desire) the quick user guide that helps you navigate your way around and get the most out of Rainier!

ORNAMENTS: additionally, you get a set of awesomely rustic ornaments designed and drawn to go specifically with Rainier!
