Original specimen by Typia Nesia

Reverse-contrast rounded display with two treatments

Soltrue

Soltrue is a heavy rounded reverse-contrast display on a near-black ground: fat capitals whose horizontals swell and whose uprights are slim, shown twice — once in a clean aged-cream fill and once in a solid red — with a small line at the top and two labels that name the treatments.

Visual anatomy & craft review

Letterform structure
of Soltrue.

The plate compares two cuts of the same construction, and the comparison is the point: the upper line is speckled and the lower is solid, so a buyer sees the clean version and the textured one side by side without opening a file. The drawing is a rounded reverse-contrast capital, so the form reads as a mid-century poster face, and the swelling horizontals set a moderate size floor because the slim uprights go first. The two labels naming the treatments are genuine product copy, and the small top line lists the styles. Because the letters are heavy and rounded, the face suits a poster, a shirt and a package, and the textured cut is best kept at a size where the speckle reads.

Practical applications

Project & layout
blueprints.

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

Summer

Poster for a record shop

A reverse-contrast face reads as a printed bill, and the two treatments let a poster mix a clean headline with a textured second line.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

A2 poster: the name at 120 mm cap height, the details in a 22 mm sans, and the date at 11 mm. Keep 28 mm margins and print two colours on a light stock.

Pre-production check

Check the A2 at five metres, where a slim upright can vanish; keep it above 3 mm. Confirm the 11 mm date reads at two metres and that the textured line stays legible.

Birthday

Shirt graphic for a band

A heavy display prints as merch, and the textured cut gives a worn look without a print effect on the shirt. The textured cut adds a worn look.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Print a 260 mm chest graphic: the band at 60 mm cap height, the tour year at 26 mm, and two inks on a dark shirt. Keep the slim uprights at 4 mm and place the graphic 80 mm below the collar.

Pre-production check

Check the screen at actual mesh, where a 4 mm upright can fill; open it to 5 mm. Wash-test one shirt and confirm the speckle stays even after five cycles.

Brand & packaging

Label for a skate brand

A reverse-contrast label reads as a printed deck sticker, and the rounded weight survives a small die where a fine face would not.

Hierarchy & layout recipe

Print a 50 by 50 mm label: the brand at 12 pt, the model at 7.5 pt, and two colours on a coated stock. Keep 4 mm inside the die and keep the uprights above 0.6 mm.

Pre-production check

Check the 12 pt brand on a small die, where an upright can fill; keep it above 0.6 mm. Confirm the 7.5 pt model reads at arm's length and that the label survives a scrape.
