| Designed by Robert Schenk, EuroikaKamp is a display serif and serif font family. This typeface has four styles and was published by Ingrimayne Type. |
In the 1990s Adobe’s MultipleMaster technology introduced interpolation into font-editing programs. Although the obvious use of interpolation was to create an unlimited number of weights and widths for a font, interpolation could also be used to blend two completely different typefaces. EuroikaKamp is the result of such blending, the offspring of two vastly different parents. Euroika is a crisp, clean family with considerable contrast. It has long, thin serifs. KampFriendship mimics a serifed face drawn by hand.
EuroikaCamp was originally constructed in 1995-6. It was not constructed to meet any specific purpose but out of curiosity, and the result is something of a curiosity. The original blending had many oddities that I did not clean up until 2020.
