A family of two typefaces, both available in positive and cameo styles. Started by John McMillan (1947–2022, Emeritus Professor of Graphic Design at Ulster University). Inspired by street sign lettering found in Belfast. In 2018, he asked MuirMcNeil to develop his sketches into type families.
“The two new typefaces have been named in their respective languages to reflect their individual identity. The gaelic version, Feirste, honours Belfast’s Irish name […] while the Latin version, Farset, adopts the name of the river that flows from the hills above the city.” [MuirMcNeil]
