Bree is in the perfect position for the next digital revolution.The complete Bree font family, along with our entire catalogue, has been optimised for today’s varied screen uses. Additionally, Bree was designed in variable font format for those who want complete control over the font’s appearance while simultaneously saving digital weight in the form of kilobytes and megabytes. More than that, Vietnamese support was added to Bree Latin, and the Bree Greek and Bree Cyrillic scripts were designed from scratch to parallel the Latin’s tone. A few shapes were updated or added (the ‘k’ and German capital ‘ß’), two entirely new weights were added (Book and Book Italic), and spacing was perfected. All this adds up to a big personality, so even when set in small text there is no skimming past the words Bree voices.In 2019, the Bree font family got a huge update. The Bembo design was named after notable the Venetian poet, Cardinal and literary theorist of the 16th century Pietro Bembo. The original Morison typeface contained only four weights and no italics. Bree has a touch of cheekiness, a wide stance for each character, and an extra-large x-height. The Bembo® design is an old-style humanist serif typeface originally cut by Francesco Griffo in 1495 and revived by Stanley Morison in 1929. Alternates of these letters are available when a more neutral look is desired. As such, some of its most characteristic features are the single-story ‘a’, the cursive ‘e’, the outstroke curves of ‘v’ and ‘w’, the flourished ‘Q’, and the fluid shapes of ‘g’, ‘y’, and ‘z’. Bree is clearly influenced by handwriting. It is named for the poet Pietro Bembo, an edition of whose writing was its first use.The revival was designed under the direction of Stanley Morison for the Monotype Corporation around 1929, as part of a revival of interest in the types used in renaissance printing. As an upright italic, Bree shows a pleasant mix of rather unobtrusive capitals with more vivid lowercase letters, giving text a lively appearance. Bembo is the name given to a 20th-century old style serif typeface cut by Francesco Griffo around 1495. The Bree font family is a spry sans serif by Veronika Burian and José Scaglione that delivers a spirited look and feel for branding and headline usage.
