Thierry Blancpain's reimagining of early grotesks in Display and Text optical sizes, choosing flavour over neutrality.
About
An early grotesk by Thierry Blancpain with Grilli Type, released in 2025 and offered in 28 styles across Display and Text. Grilli draw on pre-modernist grotesks of the period when Bauhaus and De Stijl pushed them to extremes, and say the family shuns neutrality and embraces friction. Seven weights from Thin to Black come with matching Obliques in each optical size.
Classification
