Impura

Impura is the result of a deep exploration into the Blackletter style and its diverse sub-genres. Blackletters have always fascinated us with their striking visual impact, rich historical roots, and broad range of sub-genres, each carrying distinctive stylistic nuances. Impura was designed to embody this versatility. Through a series of OpenType features, this typeface allows users to navigate between a wide array of stylistic sets and alternate forms inspired by iconic Blackletter sub-genres. This enables the typeface to adopt different personalities, from the flowing, humanistic curves of Fraktur to the rigid, angular forms of Textura, as well as other sets influenced by lesser-known sub-genres and modern reinterpretations. Additionally, Impura offers an extensive range of weights — a rarity for this genre — which adds even greater versatility. The result is a unique typeface that blends sharp angles, geometric precision, and smooth curves, creating a distinctive aesthetic characterized by its brooding elegance, unorthodox charm and raw energy. This multi-faceted approach gives Impura the ability to straddle historical authenticity and progressive creativity. [fuertetype.com]
