About
Released in 2024 by a.Foundry, af Accu Serif spans 18 styles across nine weights from Thin to Black, each with an italic, plus a variable font. The tall x-height and sans-influenced glyph rhythm make it practical for screen use, while the serifs keep it anchored in traditional typographic convention. A condensed subfamily extends its range, and OpenType features include ligatures, fractions, superiors, inferiors and stylistic sets.
Classification
A contemporary serif with a tall x-height and glyph rhythm drawn from sans-serif aesthetics, sitting between traditional serif heritage and modern digital-first design sensibilities.
