The italic wouldn't mix well with mine, though the bold might.
Originally I wanted to do the italic, but I got bored.
I have never yet completed a boldface; in my own life I tend to find searching for a different solution than boldface more rewarding than making a boldface.
I’ve had the font features on Smashing Magazine three times, I think, so I finally decided that people really liked it.
Kennerley IMO is especially pleasing if one experiences the manner in which the letters fit together. This is something that the old Monotype catalogs described as the letters seeming to ‘lock’ to each other, but in digital type it comes to this: there is very little need for kerning. See how the letters kind of spread their shoulders out and occupy the space provided to them.
I have done some work on a new version done from my own high-res scans of foundry specimens on coated paper, but I don’t think people will like it as much (except the open caps), and so I will give it a different name. But I’m not a very productive designer, anyway, so who knows what will happen?
BTW Goudy designed Forum capitals to go with Kennerley and there is an existing free version here: [link]
Is that true about Wells and typefaces?
