Flama
Feliciano Type · 2004
A geometric sans with roots in both European and American traditions, used widely in broadcast, newspaper and magazine publishing since 2004.
About
Designed originally for signage, Flama moved quickly into editorial environments and now appears in publications such as Politiken, The Sunday Times and Newsweek, as well as television networks. The family spans 50 styles across four width variants — Normal, Semi-Condensed, Condensed and Ultra-Condensed — each with ten weights from Thin to Black, and the Normal subfamily adds corresponding italics. The breadth of the collection makes it well suited to complex editorial systems where typographic hierarchy needs to work across print and screen.
Classification
Described explicitly as a geometric sans serif drawing from both European and American traditions, with a clean, structured character suited to signage and editorial use.
