The Backstory Scoop

Our Binder Family is a revival and expansion of Binder-Style, a typeface designed by Joseph Binder and released by D. Stempel AG in 1959. It originally was a single weight. In later film type adaptations, a bold style, and an outline with drop shadow style were made available. However, this typeface never really had a true sense of family or larger language compatible character set.

The original Binder-style typeface found revived popularity with its super condensed style when it appeared on the movie poster for "Silence of the Lambs". It was always a disappointment to me how this typestyle had never gained more traction in use.

And so, many years later, we decided to revive the original typestyle, and expand it with a range of weights and obliques to pair with those weights. We've moved most of the unusual lowercase forms to a Stylistic Alternates feature, along with unicast alternates for the Capitals.

The family includes a full standard character set with expansive international support of latin based languages, and 4 weights jumping from Thin to Bold, along with 4 accompanying obliques. This family is ready for you to eat it up with a nice glass of Chianti.

Here's what's included with the Binder Family:

• 538 glyphs per style - including Capitals, Lowercase, Numerals, Punctuation and an extensive character set that covers multilingual support of latin based languages.
• 4 weights: Thin, Light, Regular, & Bold.
• Accompanying Obliques with each weight/width style.
• TTF formatted fonts have been extensively hinted for optimal performance at small sizes.
• Fonts are provided in TTF & OTF formats. The TTF format is the standard go to for most users, although the OTF and TTF function exactly the same.

Here's why the Binder Family is for you:

• You're in need of a stylish condensed font with a variety of weights and obliques for your designs
• You're a fan of the typographic works of Joseph Binder, but wish there was more to them
• You love the style of Agency and Bank Gothic, but want something uber-narrow
• You are desperate to recreate the movie poster from Silence of the Lambs
• You just like to collect quality fonts to add to your design arsenal
