ABOUT Marble is part of Asterisk Type Collection by URW Type Foundry.Marble is a modern sans serif with a distinct character and comes in 54 text and 54 display styles plus Variable Fonts. It grew from the desire to create full bodied letters in contrast to the economy of most sans serif faces. Designed for corporate and publishing use it is rounded and approachable, its three styles (Condensed, Normal and Wide) range from slender elegance to warmth and playfulness without ever being informal.Designed by Vaibhav Singh and Alessia Mazzarella, Marble derives its char-acter from the generous roundness of the x-heights which is balanced by the striking horizontal or vertical cuts to the terminals. The result is a readable font that encourages the eye to move from one shape to the next and that offers a range of possibilities for digital and print. The Marble family has nine weights in Latin for each variant. Eminently ver-satile, it’s ideal for establishing hierarchies of information with a wealth of choices for headlines, subheadings, captions and body copy styles that are all in harmony with each other. The Wide style allows headlines to be set with width and presence.

Limestone, the source material for marble, forms when calcium carbonate precipitates out of water or when organic debris (shells, coral, skeletons) accumulate. Marble forms when limestone experiences metamorphism. Usually, this happens at a convergent tectonic plate boundary, but some marble forms when hot magma heats limestone or dolomite. The heat or pressure recrystallizes calcite in the rock, changing its texture. Over time, the crystals grow and interlock to give the rock a characteristic sugary sparkling appearance. Other minerals in marble also change during metamorphism. For example, clay recrystallizes to form mica and other silicates. Marble is found all over the world, but four countries

Carrara marble was used by Michelangelo, Donatello, and Canova for their masterpiece sculptures. Glass marbles entered mass production in 1846, with the German invention of marble scissors. Toys resembling marbles have been found in excavations of ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian sites.

Crushed marble is used to build roads, foundations of buildings, and railroad beds. Dimension stone is made by cutting marble into blocks or sheets. Dimension stone is used to make buildings, sculptures, paving stones, and monuments. The statue of Lincoln in the Lincoln Memorial is made of white marble form Georgia, while the floor is pink Tennessee marble and the exterior facade is marble from Colorado. Marble is susceptible to acid rain and weathering, so it wears down over time. White marble is ground to make "whiting," a powder used as a brightener and pigment. Powdered marble, along with limestone, may be used as a calcium supplement for livestock. Crushed or powdered marble is used in the chemical industry to neutralize acid, as a pill filler, and to remediate acid damage in water and soil.

MEDIUM GRAINED INTERLOCKING CALCITE CRYSTALS

MetamorphicThe variety of colours exhibited by marble are a conse-quence of minor amounts of impurities being incorporat-ed with the calcite during metamorphism. While marble can appear superficially similar to quartzite, a piece of marble will be able to be scratched by a metal blade, and marble will fizz on contact with dilute hydrochloric acid.

MARBLE BAYcalcium carbonate precipitates out of waterThe original quarries, which were used from the 6th century BC onwards, can still be seen on the north side of the island on the slopes of its central peak. The Parian's main rival in antiquity was Pentelic marble, which is also flawless white, albeit with a uniform, faint yellow tint that makes it shine with a golden hue under sunlight. Italian Carrara marble is also flawless white with a uniform faint grey tint. It is today mined mostly on the neigh-bour island of Paros, Naxos, in the mountains near the village of Kinidaros.

Biscuit Porcelain En marbrerie et en histoire de l'art, « marbre » désigne plus largement une pierre calcaire compacte (non poreuse et im-perméable), ferme et solide, difficile à tailler (ne se taille pas avec une scie à dents), et surtout qui peut recevoir un beau poli.
