An American Gothic sans with eight weights from Thin to Ultra, built for a confident and approachable tone across contemporary typographic work.
About
Positioned firmly in the American Gothic tradition, Balto runs from Thin to Ultra across eight weights, giving it considerable range for both text and display use. OpenType features include case-sensitive forms, tabular figures, fractions, subscript and superscript, making it practical for editorial and data-heavy contexts. Latin Extended language support covers a broad sweep of European and Pacific languages.
Classification
Described explicitly as an American Gothic, placing it within the grotesque sans-serif tradition that runs from Franklin Gothic through 20th-century American display type. The weight range and texture confirm a grotesque classification.
