About

Squarish letterforms and a large x-height give Gomme Sans a sturdy, commanding presence at display sizes while retaining legibility in smaller text on screen. The family runs from ExtraLight to ExtraBold, each with a matching italic, covering a broad tonal range for editorial and brand work. OpenType features include proportional figures, fractions, superior and inferior figures, and case-sensitive forms, with coverage across Western, Central and South Eastern European languages as well as Afrikaans.

Classification

Described as a wide, squarish sans with bold letterforms and strong visual impact, placing it in the grotesque tradition with a geometric influence suited to both text and display work.
