I can best describe the Thaun family as a general purpose display family, inspired by Scholtz Fonts' "
"Delikat". I wanted to produce a display font that was more robust than Delikat, without losing the delicacy of the original.
In order to do this I thinned solid, curved strokes toward the baseline, and let them dwindle to gently rounded points.
As a graphic designer I became aware that designs that used a number of styles from the same family seemed to work well.
This was easily done using a standard sans serif font such as Arial or Helvetica. However, when a different look is needed, display fonts do not always have a the variety of different styles that are necessary to produce a coherent design.

There are also two variants of the archetype i.e. Thaun Black & Thaun Rough to add variety to the primary style. An additional sub-family, Thaun Accord, appears in two widths. Thaun Jazz is a wide three dimensional variation.
Language support includes all European character sets, Greek symbols and all punctuation. Opentype features include automatic replacement of some characters and discretionary replacement of stylistic alternatives.
