Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Brond.
The mass stays almost continuous, the slots run narrow and upright, the outer corners round slightly and one diagonal cuts a hairline through the block. That slit counter is the character: the word reads as a solid slab with cut windows rather than a heavy display face, which is why the sample sets one title at a large size. Small channels are the first thing to close, so keep 44 pt and proof at the real reproduction size before committing to a small print or a low-resolution process.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Brond’s stroke geometry.
Poster mark for a club
The ultra-heavy caps give a club a solid mark, and the slit counters stay open at 60 pt on a printed poster, where the mass reads as one cut shape.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A3 poster: set the name at 60 pt on one row, keep the slot width at 2 mm minimum, and keep 24 mm of clear ground around the block so the mass stays a shape.
Pre-production check
Slots under 1 mm close on a matte sheet; check the proof and hold the name at 48 pt or above.
Cover title for a music issue
The dense caps set a loud cover, and the vertical slots hold a one-word title at 72 pt on a coated cover, where the channels stay open at press size.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A4 cover: set the title at 72 pt on one row, keep every internal channel at 3 mm, and keep 22 mm of margin on all sides so the heavy block never bleeds into the trim.
Pre-production check
A heavy block printed reverse on a coloured field fills; check the cover and keep the channels below 60 percent coverage.
Banner for a sports day
The heavy letters read from a field, and the solid mass holds a short word at 64 pt across a printed banner, with the diagonal channel kept clear.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 600 by 300 mm banner: set the word at 64 pt on one row, keep the channels at 4 mm, and keep 26 mm of border so the rounded corners stay intact.
Pre-production check
Distance closes thin channels; check the mounted banner from twenty metres and hold the word at 56 pt.
