CAST · Erasmo Ciufo · 2012
A geometric sans by Erasmo Ciufo with quietly organic details, spanning ten weights from Hairline to the display-focused Bomb.
About
Designed between 2012 and 2019, it pairs a constructed, geometric silhouette with subtly tapered strokes that soften its mechanical qualities. A large x-height makes it a practical choice for continuous text and small-scale setting, while the heaviest cuts — ExtraBold, Heavy and Bomb — are conceived explicitly for signage and headline work. The ten-weight range is notably broad for a single-width family with no italic complement.
Classification
Described by CAST as a constructivist sans with humanist qualities; its geometric structure is tempered by slightly tapered strokes and an organic rhythm that place it between the geometric and humanist sans traditions.
