Beausite
A four-subfamily type system that grafts graduated stroke contrast onto a neogrotesque skeleton, offering four distinct contrast levels from near-monotone to high-contrast Art Deco in feel.
About
Each of the four subfamilies — Classic, Fit, Slick and Grand — represents a different degree of stroke contrast, allowing designers to shift between moods while remaining within a coherent system. Classic runs the deepest range with ten weights plus italics, from Ultralight to Ultrablack, while Fit, Slick and Grand each offer six weights with italics. The Art Deco reference is worn lightly; this reads as a contemporary neogrotesque first, with contrast as a tuning mechanism rather than a period affectation.
Classification
Built on a neogrotesque skeleton with varying degrees of stroke contrast across four subfamilies, referencing the Art Deco high-contrast sans tradition while retaining neogrotesque structure.
