Aegean by George Douros of Unicode Fonts for Ancient Scripts is a free geometric sans serif with tall, slender proportions. Broad circles meet sharply angled forms, and changing stroke widths lend the lettering an elegant Art Deco cast. The spacing feels airy and measured.
Designers working on cultural and arts projects will find it suited to museum posters, exhibition programs, and refined event branding. Its clean silhouettes and classical restraint also suit magazine mastheads and feature openers, where the lettering can establish a cultured editorial voice.
Aegean covers the following scripts and symbols supported by Unicode: Basic Latin, Greek and Coptic, Greek Extended, some Punctuation and other Symbols, Linear B Syllabary, Linear B Ideograms, Aegean Numbers, Ancient Greek Numbers, Ancient Symbols, Phaistos Disc, Lycian, Carian, Old Italic, Ugaritic, Old Persian, Cypriot Syllabary, Phoenician, Lydian, and Archaic Greek Musical Notation. Aegean allocates in Plane 15 of the UCS the following scripts and symbols, as yet unsupported by Unicode: Cretan Hieroglyphs, Cypro-Minoan, Linear A, the Arkalochori Axe, signs on Troy vessels and the Dispilio tablet. The font also contains many variants of Linear A and B, the Cypriot Syllabary, ancient alphabets, et. al.
