Rezak is a typeface inspired by cutting letters out of a material. With only a few cuts, the shapes remain dark and simple. With more and more cuts, the shapes become lighter and more defined. The core range of Rezak’s weights display this relationship between cuts and lightness. Rezak also features an italic for the regular style and an incised style for use in large titles.
