TT Cometus is a modern slab—impressive and sturdy but energetic and dynamic at the same time. The idea behind this font was to design a narrow display slab serif. We aimed to keep the heavy serifs typical for slabs while also giving the font a modern and dynamic look. To achieve this, we combined sturdy details with completely opposite shapes, added a handmade feel, and drew inspiration from brush movements in calligraphy. The typeface's name evokes the image of a comet—a powerful and weighty celestial body with a beautiful tail slicing through space at an incredible speed. This is a key to understanding the font's nature and personality.

TT Cometus is an expressive typeface with a friendly nature, unusual serifs, and letter terminals tapered like a comet's tail. It's a perfect choice for designs that require the audience's maximum attention: in headlines, logos, or branding. TT Cometus shines best in large point sizes.
