Plato

Serif fonts have often been challenging in 8x8, and I’m always trying to see if I can do something new.

I love the font Palatino, and Trajan has a certain charm too — despite Hollywood overusing it.

Taking a few cues from both, I came up with a serif that’s a little different from the others with open counters, long tails, and subtle angles that hardly does the source material justice but still looks authoritative within the constraints.
