Qommodore is an amalgam of different constructs with a completely new experimental texture. Born out of the creative encounter between Hugues Gentile and Jean-Baptiste Levée, Qommodore is the merger of their common interest for monospaced serif.
Qommodore is a high-contrast serif, drawn with the construction of 19th-century display types. But its proportions are monospace, forcing many of the natural widths of the 19th century out of the equation.
Like most high-contrast serifs, Qommodore gains weight only in its thick strokes, and the hairlines stay hairlines throughout. The typeface comprises six weights, beginning with a skeleton frame in ExtraLight that will feel wider than its bolder weights. In ExtraBold, Qommodore’s thick strokes borrow from the interior space, thus creating a dramatic and glitchy texture.
All-capital titles will set beautifully as small as 60pt in ExtraLight and set a more traditional tone. As you increase the weight, increase the scale, and drop the character count to maintain comfort in reading while enjoying all of the quirky details.
The typeface invites designers to enjoy a mashup of details like the intricate serifs on lowercase t, the graceful ß, eponymous Q, stifling Bold W and Extra Bold m, corseted R and even the delightful punctuation.
