Volkhov is a low-contrast seriffed typeface with a robust character, intended for providing a motivating reading experience.
As a four-weight family it is well-suited for complex text environments being economic and legible, contemporary and prominent. Many of its design solutions relate to this purpose: large open counters, rather short descenders, and brutal asymmetric serifs.
Spacing in Bold is slightly increased compared to the normal weight, because the bold mass is mostly grown inwards. The Italic has a steep angle and a distinctive calligraphically reminiscent character, as a counterpart to the rigorous Regular.
Designed by Ivan Petrov.

Cyreal is a foundry deeply rooted in the open-source movement. Founded in 2010, the collective has expanded popular typefaces like Nunito, Rubik, and Raleway with Cyrillic support, among other works. Its original releases, including Lora, Prata, and Alice, have become a quiet staple in digital and print design, widely appearing across websites, apps, and editorial layouts.
