Aniuk is a new original display type family designed and optimized for the use in large sizes. With five robust weights – Regular, Medium, Bold, Heavy and Black – it is perfectly suited for editorial, posters or logo design.

A perfect balance of characteristic curves and edgy details make this a strong but playful typeface; a solid partner for your creative adventures. 2

Some letters evolved a lot since the first version of the typeface in 2003. The concept is only good if it functions as a whole system.

Break the icewith AniukDuring the founding of the Austrian type foundry Typejockeys, it was clear that Aniuk would be the third type family to be released, following up on the award-winning Ingeborg and Premiéra type families. The latter is a book typeface optimized for small text setting. Now this is pretty much the opposite of that!

Seven years went by and Aniuk was defrosted, re-animated and re-

vised big time! We put warmth into the strength, softened the loudness of the forms but obtained the charm-ing energy. Aniuk is lively, young, and probably a little crazy. However, there certainly is one thing that it is not: boring. Be passionate, get emotional, and express yourself with a variety of five different weights.

Because: If you’re walking on thin ice, you might as well dance!

In 2003, the first sketches for these new and extraordinary forms were made. Conventions were not an issue for the young Thomas Gabriel at this time. He was defintely more concerned with creating unconventional forms and wacky curves.

Detailed Aniuk is one of the many inuit words describing a particular type of snow. The word is used to name snow that is most easily melting and therefore used for making drinking water.

Short Particular type of snow Inuit use to make drinking water.

Nutshell Snow for drinking water!

What kind of name is that?!A short explanation that won’t help you.

Lining, non-lining and tabular versions.

Mitailak: Weicher Schnee, der ein Loch in einer Eisscholle überdeckt. Inuit Kinder lernen bereits früh diesen Schnee rechtzeitig zu erkennen um nicht in das darunter liegende eiskalte Wasser einzubrechen.
