F37 were commissioned by Interbrand to work on a new custom typeface for Fujitsu, as the brand decided to sharpen their brand image. F37 came up with Fujitsu Infinity. We used F37 Ginger as a starting point, developing 6 different weights to compliment the new brand image. This typeface family was designed with warmth and openness at its core and is well-placed for greater legibility and accessibility across all print and digital communications.

Fujitsu Infinity needed to work across print and web and in all sizes. This meant that F37 Ginger, a geometric typeface typically used for mid to large point sizes, would need to undergo a number of changes. To optimise the versatility of F37 Ginger we increased the x-height, spacing and size of punctuation, while reducing the capital height and opening apertures. Further modifications were made to several characters with similar letter shapes.
