A 48-style constructed grotesque built on a superellipse structure, spanning six widths from Compressed to Extended across eight weights each.
About
Built around the superellipse or Lamé curve, a letterform geometry that traps a circle inside a box, Pilat draws on a post-war design sensibility that merges craft with industrial precision. The superfamily runs six width variants from Compressed through to Extended, each in eight weights from Thin to Black, giving 48 styles in total. Specimen copy referencing motorsport, aerospace and Italian industrial design reflects the typeface's intended register: confident, technical and period-flavoured.
Classification
A constructed grotesque built on a superellipse or Lamé curve structure, giving letterforms a geometry that sits between circular and rectangular. The post-war industrial aesthetic and systematic width range place it firmly in the geometric-grotesque tradition.
