All external corners of the glyphs were also rounded. In addition to forced compensation in the boldest styles, TT Lakes Neue is a maximally non-contrasting sans-serif, with ovals in the form of rounded rectangles. For letters with semi-ovals, we completely changed the location of inflows, which now correspond to the logic of pen writing.We added massive visual compensators in the boldest styles from the narrowest widths of TT Lakes Neue-this is done in order to preserve as much internal white as possible in the characters and maintain their readability. Within each of the styles, we corrected the proportions of the characters (for example, E, M), changed the shapes of the characters (for example, S, R, K, Л) and redrew each character anew. Within each of these 5 widths, we revised the distribution of thicknesses and made this distribution more harmonious. We can safely say that using TT Lakes Neue in your work is like wearing classic jeans-they suit everyone and meet any life challenge.We started work on TT Lakes Neue by revising the width palette and increasing their number to five width: Compressed, Condensed, Regular, Extended, Expanded. Despite the general resemblance to the once popular TT Lakes typeface, TT Lakes Neue is a typeface of a completely different level: it features a much more mature approach to design, working with details and to its functionality and variability. TT Lakes Neue is a simple and functional sans-serif that draws inspiration from Finnish signs of the functionalism era.
