Vercetti Regular is a sans serif font inspired by a humanistic design with a geometric touch.
The designers were influenced by MgOpen Moderna, an open source sans-serif typeface introduced by Magenta Ltd. in Greece in 2004. MgOpen Moderna draws inspiration from the design principles of Helvetica, embracing the simplicity of Modernism, with a neutral and clean construction suitable for small text and titles.
326 glyphs came out of this intense collaboration, enough to ensure full range of characters to anyone using it in a project.
While designing Vercetti, the creators pulled out and reassembled pieces from an earlier release, so Vercetti became a decisively enhanced descendant of Magenta Ltd's MgOpen Moderna open source typeface.
