Favela specimen from Capitalics

A geometric sans by Mateusz Machalski where glyph width and x-height scale progressively across the weight range, from condensed hairlines to super-extended blacks.

About

Spanning 22 styles across 11 weights from Hairline to Black, the family's defining trait is that width is not fixed: the lightest styles are condensed, Regular sits at a neutral proportion, and Black is super extended with shortened ascenders. Middle weights are suited to short text, while the extremes are aimed at display, branding and layout work. All styles include over 500 glyphs and a full set of small caps.

Classification

Described explicitly as geometric and sans serif; the scalable construction shifting from condensed at hairline to super extended at black is a distinctive geometric design logic.
