Marcellus
serifclassical serif
An elegant, inscription-inspired serif with flared terminals and classical poise, suited to titles and headings.
About
Marcellus takes its cues from Roman stone-cut lettering, combining high stroke contrast with refined, slightly flared terminals that give headings a ceremonial gravitas. It is best employed at display sizes for editorial mastheads, luxury branding, book covers, and titling work where a classical tone is required. The single weight limits its use as a text face, but as a headline typeface it is quietly distinguished.
Classification
Marcellus is a single-weight serif with elegantly flared terminals and high contrast, evoking inscriptional Roman letterforms. Its refined, lapidary quality positions it firmly as a display and titling face.
