The original spark for Nordic Narrow came to designer René Verkaart one day while drinking a glass of “Apfelschlore” (a carbonated water and apple juice mix). On the bottle logo he saw an intriguing “a”, and he started to sketch on a new typeface.
Though this single glyph served as an inspiration, the end result was something quite different.
One of the trademarks of the typeface is the diagonal mid strokes. A reference to the nordic runes, which he studied during the design process.

I think it is one of our most useful fonts in that it doesn't draw much attention to itself while it is quite refreshingly different.
Almost all shapes in Vecta are rounded to provide a friendly effect.
Proportions are somewhat condensed providing economic space usage.
Vecta looks equally at home in headlines as well as body text.
Soft and round are the words that best describe the Co font family. Its underlying geometry structures the font design and allows it to have an even rhythm. Co Arabic carries through all the design elements that give the Co family its look and feel into a truly fresh Arabic script.
Dalton Maag has engineered the font to its usual high standards and listened carefully to Arabic experts and readers to create a superbly readable font.
The Co font family was created in collaboration with North Design.
The family is also available in a Standard Edition, which includes the Latin Extended A character set, and the Corporate Edition which includes full Latin, Greek and Cyrillic character sets.
A legible sans serif, with bouncy edges. A little loose but not too jumpy!
Comes with a fi and fl ligature.
