Original specimen by greenvill

Slab serif display with bevelled cuts and sharp square serifs

Falcon

Falcon is a slab serif display in which the stems stay broad, the serifs turn square and the corners carry a bevel, so a single word reads as a cast metal plaque rather than as a headline.

Visual anatomy & craft review

Letterform structure
of Falcon.

The F sets three square arms on a broad stem, the A carries a wide bar under a flat apex, the L turns a right angle, the C cuts a square crescent and the N holds two stout stems with a bevelled diagonal, all at a slab weight with square serifs and cut corners that catch the light. The bevel is the character: it is drawn rather than rendered, which is why the sample sets one word in metal tones on a dark table. Because the shapes are solid and open, the face reads from 26 pt and holds a plaque at 200 pt, and it prints in one ink. The dark surface, the letter blocks, the small badges and the format marks are presentation; the metallic display word is the face.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Falcon’s stroke geometry.

Brand & packaging

Plaque for a workshop door

The bevelled slabs read as cast metal, and the heavy stems hold a one-word name at 40 mm on an engraved plate in two tones.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Engrave a 300 by 120 mm plate: set the word at 40 mm, cut the bevel at 30 degrees, and keep 20 mm of border so the square serifs sit clear of the fixing screws.

Pre-production check

Screws drilled close to a square serif crack the plate; check the layout and keep every serif 15 mm from a fixing hole.

Editorial & posters

Cover for an industrial design book

The slab weight gives a technical cover its tone, and the square serifs hold a title at 80 pt on a plain ground in one ink.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Print an A4 cover: set the title at 80 pt across the upper half, set the subtitle in a 10 pt sans beneath, and keep 25 mm of margin so the bevelled corners are inside the trim.

Pre-production check

A slab title set tight to the trim looks cropped; check the imposed cover and centre the word on its optical mass.

Autumn

Sign for a workshop sale

The heavy slabs read from the end of a lane, and the bevelled corners catch daylight on a painted board at 110 mm in one colour.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Paint a 900 by 300 mm board: set the words at 110 mm, keep 35 mm of border, and paint the bevel as a line rather than a gradient so it reads at a distance.

Pre-production check

A painted bevel that fades along the stroke looks like a fault; check the board and keep the line even across the word.
