King Volsung ruled over all the land which lies between the sea and the country of the Goths

THE DAYS WERE GOLDEN

Features

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.

Features

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.

Features

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 Tangley font is a loose interpretation of the Cy Twombly's graphic in the untitled series. The type has the characteristic loopiness of the letters, minimal spacing and the ability to typeset with zero or even negative leading. The height of the lowercase Tangley letters is made as high as possible to reduce the height difference in the title case and to increase the graphic loopy uniformity of the lines relative to each other. Let your imagination loose and get lost in the loops of Tangley. Try all the craziest combinations like -100 in tracking or adding multiple strokes. Don't be constrained by legibility. Works cool in big sizes! Any headlines, large signs for way-finding, quotes in long-reads will always be catchy with that loopy Cy Twombly inspired style. The font style will do wonders when used in poster, movie and video titles and book covers.
