The idea behind
Phrasa was to create a stylish typeface but with legibility in mind. First drafts were tested against Frutiger. The typeface performed well, yet she didn’t do so well in paragraph setting. New inspiration was needed. It came from history, namely from two of the most legible typefaces known: Garamond and Gill Sans. After reworking much of the design, the new typeface boasted a smooth, easy-on-the-eyes texture which allowed the reader to simply sink into the text. To compliment this development a set of true italics was added.
