TYPE DESIGN

Jonathan Bruun – Sekvens

by Jonathan Bruun

Sekvens is a typeface family of five weights with corresponding italics shaped by a continuous dialogue between perceptions of time and the design of letterforms. Revisiting early digital aesthetics and humanist sans serifs, Sekvens balances a standardized structure with subtle, idiosyncratic details. It navigates the familiar, embracing defaults, norms, and conventions, while simultaneously questioning how the inherited connotations of these forms are aging within the current landscape of type design. Embracing this duality, Sekvens represents both a documentation of past tendencies and a search for new proposals.
