A text-oriented wedge serif from Indian Type Foundry with five weights, italics and variable font support, designed as part of the broader Bespoke superfamily.
About
Designed by a team of five at Indian Type Foundry, Bespoke Serif pairs wedge-shaped serifs with large open counterforms to keep text legible at small sizes. The italics are partially cursivised rather than simply slanted, with the lowercase 'a' and 'g' switching from double-storied to single-storied forms. Proportionally-spaced oldstyle figures complete the text-focused feature set, and the family sits alongside Bespoke Sans and Bespoke Stencil as part of a coherent superfamily.
Classification
Bespoke Serif features wedge-shaped serifs and open counterforms, positioning it as a text-optimised wedge or hybrid serif rather than a classical old-style or transitional design.
