The design goal of Cormorant was to distill +the aesthetic essence of Garamond, unfetter it from the limitations of +metal printing, and allow it to bloom into its natural refined form at +high definition. Cormorant is characterized by scandalously small +counters, razor-sharp serifs, dangerously smooth curves, and +flamboyantly tall accents. While many implementations of Garamond at +small optical sizes already exist, Cormorant aims for the sparsely +populated niche of display-size counterparts that exploit the high +resolution of contemporary screens and print media to the fullest.") + (license license:silofl1.1))) -- cgit v1.2.3
