Estd. specimen from A2-Type

A mono-linear sans drawn from inscribed floor tiles in Basque Country churches, digitised across seven weights with a broad character set.

About

The letterforms are rooted in the even-stroked inscriptions found on church floor tiles in the French Basque Country, giving the family a quiet, archaic rigidity that sets it apart from conventional geometric sans designs. Seven weights run from Thin to Bold without italics, keeping the family focused on display and titling applications where the inscriptional quality reads clearly. The extended character set supports multiple languages, broadening its practical reach beyond its niche historical source material.

Classification

Described by A2-Type as 'heavy duty mono-linear', the letterforms derive from inscribed tile work rather than typographic tradition, producing a geometric, even-stroked sans with an archaic, engraved quality.
