About

A geometric sans from Commercial Type, designed by Berton Hasebe with Ilya Ruderman and Panagiotis Haratzopoulos. Styrene A is the rounder, more familiar cut and Styrene B the squarer, single-storey display companion. Each runs six weights from Thin to Black with matching italics, and the system supports Latin, Cyrillic and Greek.
