The letters “b” “p” and “n” in Accord Alternate font function with rounded strokes that smoothly unite with vertical stems throughout these characters. The font shows minimal italic angles at 10 degrees which allows it to maintain uniformity between letter shapes while presenting a businesslike look.
The design of Accord Alternate keeps characters structured as originally typed, so the double-story “a” does not evolve into a single-story shape like traditional italics. Developed through deliberate design decisions, the typeface achieves both basic characteristics and functional simplicity, which makes it exceptionally suitable for corporate professional projects.
