Has anyone used 'National'from vllg fonts?
Keen to hear how usable it is, accross body, titling, captions and so on...

I've thought about it, but I really dislike the uc "R" in the bold weights.

thanks for pointing it out.

It's a pretty beautiful family all in all, but that letter gets me. More dynamic shape in it than in the rest of the letterforms. Your design?

Kris talks a little bit about National here:

Remember that there's an alternate 'R'.
I haven't used National, but I can assure you that after thoroghly handling <a href="http://www.fontshop.com/features/newsletters/nov2007_a/">FF Meta Serif</a> Sowersby's technical work is sound.

I forget that there's no HTML here.

I can't believe you don't like the default 'R', Ampersanderson, but here's a peek at the alternate:

such a nice font. i was just thinking that national and meta serif would be a great combo — didn't realise they were from the same designer.

That is an attractive typeface. I like the "R".
