From the foundry
Ladna Faux is the nihilist companion to Ladna, blissfully unaware of optical correctness. Its italics are robust obliques of the normal styles and the faux upright styles were achieved by back-slanting true italics—a no-go zone considered by typography connoisseurs, but a suitable addition to a font family rooted in amateurism. Ladna itself is a grotesk-style typeface that doesn't take itself too seriously and has a friendly presence through its slight quirks, interpreting certain clumsiness of soviet-era enamel street signs found around Estonia, giving it a relaxed tone while not interrupting the reading experience.
