CAST · Giulio Galli, Luciano Perondi · 2024
A rounded display cut of CAST's Sole Serif family, built across four optical sizes and six weights for newspaper and magazine headlines.
About
Derived from Sole Serif Display, this cut introduces rounded terminals, lighter joints and shorter bracketed serifs to produce a softer, more distinctive character at large sizes. The four optical sizes, Subhead, Headline, Display and BigDisplay, each carry six weights from Light to Black, giving art directors fine control over weight and scale. Suited to editorial headlines, posters and packaging where a serif needs presence without sharpness.
Classification
A bracketed serif with rounded terminals and lighter joints, designed explicitly as a display face for newspaper and magazine headlines. Its optical size range and shortened serifs place it firmly in the display serif category.
