Carpenter Serif is a transitional text
typeface designed throughout my time
enrolled in the ’22-’23 Cooper Union
Extended Type Design Program. Its
design is inspired by the craft of
woodworking — the shapes that wood
forms as it is connected and
constructed into furniture or objects.
With low-contrast and a high x-height,
Carpenters Serif shines in longer-form
text settings. Despite its sharp
features, Carpenters Serif is infused
with humanist forms, resulting in a
warm, inviting typeface.
