2 Mr Eaves Design Notes 3

Mr Eaves is the often requested sans-serif companion to Mrs Eaves, one


of Emigre’s classic typeface designs. Created by Zuzana Licko, this latest
addition to the Emigre Type Library is based on the proportions of the

Mr Eaves Sans and Mr Eaves Modern counterparts.

A matching Modern family provides a less humanistic look, with simpler


and more geometric-looking shapes, most noticeably in the squared-off

furthest from its roots, yet still contains some of Mrs Eaves’ DNA.
Licko took some liberty with the design of Mr Eaves. One of the main
concerns was to avoid creating a typeface that looked like it simply had
its serifs cut off. And while it matches Mrs Eaves in weight, color, and
armature, Mr Eaves stands as its own typeface with many unique charac-
teristics.

The Modern Italic is free of tails, and overall the Modern exhibits more
repetition of forms, projecting a cleaner look. This provides stronger
differentiation from the serif version whenever a more contrasting look is
desired.

Deviations from the Mrs Eaves model are evident in the overall decrease
of contrast, as well as in details such as the flag and tail of the f and j, and
the finial of the t, which were shortened to maintain a cleaner, sans serif
look. Some characters had to be balanced out differently, such as the
lower case c after it lost its top ball terminal.

characters providing unique options for applications such as headlines,
word logos, letterheads, pull quotes, and other customized text settings.
