Hiems is the first Serif font I designed. It has the same skeleton as the font Platform, it has a fancy but modern and fantasy style. This font is characterised by blunt angulated serifs and cuts. Hiems can be used according to different situations and concepts, but could be mainly used for fairy tails and literature texts. The digital version of my font I designed with Adobe Illustrator and the Astute Graphics plugins InkScribe, VectorScribe and VectorFirstAid. With the Adobe Illustrator plugin FontSelf, I did the kerning and generated the Open Type font file (OTF). To present my fonts appropriately, I finally created a Typeface Specimen for both fonts.
