Whitney (typeface) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Whitney (typeface)
Whitney is a family of sans-serif digital typefaces designed by American type designer Tobias Frere-Jones. It was originally created for New York’s Whitney Museum as its institutional typeface.〔(Whitney | Hoefler & Frere-Jones )〕 Two key requirements were flexibility for editorial requirements and a design consistency with the Whitney Museum's existing public signage. ==Typographical Context== Whitney bridges the divide between editorial mainstays such as News Gothic (1908) which is an American “gothic” and signage application standards such as Frutiger (1975), a European "humanist" typeface. This is achieved via "Its compact forms and broad x-height use space efficiently, and its ample counters and open shapes make it clear under any circumstances."〔(typography.com/fonts/font_overview.php?productLineID=100026 )〕
