Kassi specimen from Almarena

A two-style ultra-condensed display face by Jérémie Gauthier, blending angular geometry with echoes of gothic fraktur and impact-style lineals.

About

Released in 2022, Kassi comes in Classic and Display variants, both sharing a high x-height, compressed counters and strongly marked verticals that nod towards German typographic tradition and early lineal grotesques like Impact. The angular letterforms and tight interletter spacing make it best suited to headlines, large-format print and display use where presence matters. Its broad Latin language coverage extends to over eighty languages across Western and Eastern European scripts.

Classification

Kassi is a heavily condensed, high-contrast display typeface with angular letterforms and references to gothic fraktur and impact-style lineals, placing it firmly in the display category with a condensed display subcategory.
