The term "modern" in typography refers to a definite style initiated at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. While Italian Bodoni and French Didot established the pattern for the continental modern typefaces, its British counterpart took its own route. The British modern style, above all represented by figures such as Richard Austin and John Isaac Drury, together fuses the continental influences with the local tradition in a very distinctive visual language that was to prove the necessary ground for the typographical innovations of the nineteenth century. Brunel, a typeface that took its inspiration from these early British moderns and stood as the bridge between historical forms and their modern-day applications, is one recent revival of this heritage.
