Fritzi Baci Serif  is a modern typeface based on the neoclassical serif font Didot. It is shaped out of the skeleton of Didot and transformed into a new, more playful serif. Characteristical for Fritzi Baci Serif are its slight stroke contrast, its variation of unbracketed and bracketed serifs as well as its straight vertical stress making the font modern and elegant. To make the font, I created the letters in Illustrator and later used the plugin FontSelf for kerning and to create the Open Type font file (OTF). It can be best used for elegant, simple designs and novels to create a bold and clean look at the same time.
