About

Released as a standalone style, Self Modern Italic is part of Lucas Le Bihan's Self Modern family from Fonderie Bretagne. The foundry's aesthetic leans toward the elemental and coastal, informed by the landscape of Brittany. The italic is suited to editorial and expressive typesetting where a high-contrast modern serif is required.

Classification

The name and italic designation point to a modern or Didone-influenced serif; the italic cut is offered as a distinct product, consistent with high-contrast modulated serifs where the italic is a formal companion to the roman.
