Luxury font collection

j_polo9

I bought the Luxury set which I really like but I hate not having any choices for weight. Now I realize how dependant I have become to choose different weights depending on compositions and not having choices is really annoying. Does anyone know if they are planning on releasing different weights ever?

Or if the fonts were going to be used for a logo, how hard do you think it would be to give them more weight by hand?

I would e-mail Christian himself and ask about his future plans for this good looking family.

Sounds good. Is he a member here? Where can i find his contact info?

thanks, i sent him an email.

It's easy to get swept away by a typeface and forget what tools you need to get the job done. Our wiki should include a collective checklist for choosing type. It would include: make sure the family has sufficient weights, widths, small caps, and/or italics for your purposes.

If you're using the fonts for a logo you can try stroking them in illustrator but that approach tends to work better with sans than serif fonts.

House seems to let you modify their fonts (nice of them!) but no embedding!
