Erik Marinovich and Lucas Sharp’s new Rotina is very fun: https://www.sharptype.co/typefaces/rotina I like how Erik brings his lettering instincts into his type design.

The Swash, a refined improvement on 1970s Helvetica & Univers Flairs (https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/162406/univers-flair), is what the promos feature most, but the Script – a cursive/italic hybrid – is what makes this design special. The only thing kinda like it is Commercial Type’s Control Cursive (https://commercialtype.com/catalog/control/control_cursive_vf), inspired by Van Dijk (https://fontsinuse.com/typefaces/3539/van-dijk).

Unlike Helvetica Flair, Univers Flair is not shown in the Alphabet Innovations Index, Vols. 1–10 (1976). Shown as Univers Flair in a Typeshop catalog from 1973, and as Univers Flair Kurl-i-Q in a c. 1976 Fürst catalog.
