A geometric display sans in three widths inspired by mid-century travel and transit lettering, made for headlines and signage.
About
A geometric display sans by Jonathan Hoefler and the H&Co studio, drawing on the lettering of mid-century travel posters, airline graphics and transit systems. It comes in regular, wide and extra wide widths across five weights, giving it the airy poise of jet-age signage. Suited to headlines, packaging and identity work that wants the optimism of the period without slipping into pastiche.
