Bernhard Modern
Bernhard Modern is a distinctive Art Deco-influenced serif typeface that emerged from the early 20th century design movement, characterized by dramatic stroke contrast and geometric precision. The typeface features pronounced thick and thin strokes typical of Didone faces, but with a more expressive, decorative sensibility that reflects the Art Deco aesthetic. Its letterforms exhibit sharp, unbracketed serifs and perfectly vertical stress, while maintaining elegant proportions with a relatively high x-height. The face distinguishes itself from classical Didones through its slightly more condensed character width and subtle geometric influences in certain letterforms, making it both sophisticated and dramatically expressive.
