About
Named after the ficus plant family, this slightly condensed serif draws on organic references while maintaining crisp, high-contrast letterforms suited to editorial headlines and packaging. The rounded serifs give it a softness that tempers the contrast, making it feel refined rather than severe. Released in 2018 with European language support and oldstyle figures, it covers a broad Latin Extended character set across a single Regular style.
Classification
A high-contrast, slightly condensed serif with rounded serifs and tall x-height, characteristics that place it firmly in the display serif category, designed for headline and decorative use rather than extended text.
