This unique typeface, reportedly inspired by the Futurama character of the same name, is one of the winners of the International Type Design Competition “Modern Cyrillic 2009” and looks exquisite at all sizes. The fonts cover a long list of Eurasian languages based on Latin and Cyrillic scripts, but the most important feature is the support for all official and almost all minority languages of the Russian Federation. Developed for the “Public Types of Russian Federation” governmental project, these fonts give possibility to the peoples of Russia to read and write on their native languages.
Though not as fancy as some of the others, this was a clear choice for the first typeface on the list.
