Scenery specimen from Formagari

A four-year project by Lucas Le Bihan that blends compact geometric sans proportions with decorative ornamental details, rounded edges and flared terminals across eight weights from Thin to Black.

About

Drawing on the proportions of Classified Display (1955) and neo-grotesque conventions, Scenery layers in eclectic touches — openings borrowed from Auriol (1903), serifs on the s, and rounded corners that grow more pronounced at heavier weights. The lighter cuts carry ornamental character suited to body text, while the heavier weights shed those details to become clean, squared display faces in the manner of Reklameschrift Block. Two variable fonts cover upright and italic axes, with spacing and kerning by Igino Marini and mastering by Solenn Bordeau.

Classification

Scenery is rooted in compact geometric sans-serif proportions, referencing Classified Display and neo-grotesque conventions, while adding ornamental and flared-terminal details that blur the line between pure geometric and decorative traditions.
