Long years ago, before the evil days had dawned,
King Volsung ruled over all the land which lies between the sea and the country of the Goths
THE DAYS WERE GOLDEN
and the good Frey dropped peace and plenty everywhere, and men went in and out and feared no wrong. King Volsung had a dwelling in the midst of fertile fields and fruitful gardens.
Fairer than any dream was that dwelling. The roof was thatched with gold, and red turrets and towers rose above. The great feast-hall was long and high, and its walls were hung with sun-bright shields; and the door-nails were of silver.
In the middle of the hall stood the pride of the Volsungs,—a tree whose blossoms filled the air with fragrance, and whose green branches, thrusting themselves through the ceiling, covered the roof with fair foliage. It was Odin’s tree, and King Volsung had planted it there with his own hands.

Information
The Surt typeface family, inspired by Norse mythology and Scandinavian Architecture, draws a bridge between a geometric sans and a human process in the whole shape design. Surt's Norse-like character set will allow text layouts to have this unusual corkiness which make it so particular and so comfortable to read. The rounded Norse inspired glyphs’ width are shaped in such a way that they operate a discrete rupture in the text rhythmic. Surt also draws inspiration in geometrical shapes found in geometric fonts. While the history of geometric fonts can be traced back to the early days of the modernist movement in the early twentieth century. Surt's inspiration is more contemporary and in link to strong brutalist architecture than historical geometric or even neo grotesque like fonts. # Make a Difference with Wide or Extended Sans Serif Fonts In many cases, size in itself may not be all that relevant. But when it comes to making an impact, size really does matter and is something you should take into account. In the case of design, for advertising and company and product branding, extended sans serif fonts can be the difference between a forgettable image and one that really makes an impact. If you want to make heads turn and create something people will remember, it’s often best to go big. ## Properly Designed and Produced for Maximum Impact Extended fonts are sometimes simply wider versions of normal fonts. But it isn’t simply a case of taking one of those normal fonts and stretching it sideways to achieve the desired effect. That will result in pixelation, a blurring of the letters and will spoil the clean lines of the characters that cause the impact they normally have. Some fonts are available in extended size only and may be provided only as upper case versions or a combination of upper and lower case. They may also be provided in different weights, have varying attributes and be in various styles for greatest effect. At Blaze Type, every typeface within each font family is individually designed and highly engineered. That means each one will always look its best, whether in online or printed form and for all sizes and attributes, so you’ll always achieve the effect you desire. Our extended fonts, especially when combined with other styles, will create a strong image and help to get your message across. They’ll help to sell your products, raise the image of your organization and, over time, will increase profitability. So, you can’t afford to underestimate their value and need to acquire the best and most suitable fonts for every job. ## Assessing and Meeting your Needs We do have a wide range of (link: http://blazetype.eu/typefaces text: fonts available), both serif and sans serif, extended and normal width, so you should be able to find something that meets your needs. If not, you can take advantage of our design service, so we can create a font that’s unique for you and ideal for your needs, both in normal and extended versions. We’ll carefully assess your requirements and aims, work through the creative process with you and create a font that will have the impact you desire. When you want to get your message across, big really can be beautiful and size does matter. But that’s only if you achieve a consistency of quality across all your typefaces and deliver a coordinated message that’s easy on the eye and creates an impact in all formats and across all platforms. The only way you’ll do that properly is by choosing your fonts carefully. Our innovative and detailed methods mean many of our fonts are in front of trends and, with the right choices, we can help your business be the same. The right message means increased awareness, extra sales revenue and improved profits, which can be achieved with the help of extended fonts.
