Today the inner city is an industrial momument — a growing waste land without life. Abandoned car wrecks by the side of the street are the only remains of the glorious days of the Motor City. It the middle of the 20st century Detroit was the boom town of North America and the car manufacturers equipped their cars with shiny chrome parts – and a new kind of type design: Chrome Script. Based on this almost forgotten style, we developed two contemporary retro font family, called Hooptie Script. The fonts make full use of modern OpenType technology. Just turn on contextual alternates and ligatures and watch how each letter pair always connects perfectly. </p> <p>Check out the <a href="http://www.fonts.info/shop/pub/hooptie-specimen.pdf">PDF type specimen</a>. </p> <p>The fonts are available at <a href="http://www.fonts.info/">fonts.info</a> and <a href="http://new.myfonts.com/foundry/FDI/?refby=opentype">MyFonts.com</a>. </p> <p>Along with these typefaces we released an eBook about the Motor City, which uses the Hooptie Script fonts.
