Griffon specimen from Dharma Type

A titling serif with five weights and small caps, drawn from early 20th-century letterform conventions for headline and branding use.

About

Griffon is a display serif family built around classic proportions reminiscent of type from the 1900s to 1930s. Five weights from Light to Bold each include small caps, giving designers some typographic range within what is otherwise a purely display-oriented family. Best suited to masthead work, packaging and identities that want a period-influenced gravitas without resorting to outright revival.

Classification
