About

A two-axis sans by Vincent Chan with Christian Schwartz and Miguel Reyes, conceived as the sans counterpart to Sanomat. The Display family carries ten weights from Hairline to Black plus a Stencil Black, all with matching italics, for headlines and posters. Sanomat Sans Text trims the range to seven workhorse weights with italics, drawn for running copy at smaller sizes. Sits in newspaper and magazine systems where you need a single sans voice to flex from masthead to caption.

Classification
