About

The Story of Mekorot

Eli Heuer

Serif

Open Source

Mekorot serif typeface delivers antiqua forms with Hebrew support through old-style variable construction suited to bilingual applications. Eli Heuer's design addresses Hebrew-Latin typography for publications, formal documents, and cultural contexts. The variable construction enables precise control while old-style proportions add classical elegance. Mekorot's classical aesthetic serves Jewish publications, cultural institutions, and bilingual communications. Both scripts benefit from harmonized proportions. Pair with complementary typefaces following Hebrew-Latin design patterns.

Mekorot was created by Eli Heuer. The typeface demonstrates a commitment to typographic detail, visible in its letterform construction and optical balance.

As a Serif typeface in the Vox-ATypI Classicals classification, Mekorot features bracketed or hairline serifs terminating each stroke and modulated stroke contrast from axis of stress. These optical characteristics make it well-suited for academic papers and legal documents.

Mekorot is available in a single weight, offering focused typographic consistency for both digital and print applications, with 3 font pairings curated. Standard Latin character coverage serves the majority of Western typographic workflows.
