About
Rounded stems and swoosh terminals give the family a distinctly tactile quality suited to branding, editorial and packaging work. The core family runs 14 styles across seven weights from Light to Black, each with a matching italic, with four Compressed styles added as an extension. Henning Skibbe was awarded a TDC2 award for the family through the Type Directors Club, New York.
Classification
Rounded stems and swoosh terminals give Haptic a warm, organic quality typical of humanist sans-serifs, designed to balance expressive character at display sizes with legibility in small text.
