JT Multona specimen from July Type

A square grotesque display typeface tracing its lineage to early 20th-century types such as Gigant, offered in five weights with matching italics and variable font support.

About

Rooted in the square grotesque genre that appeared on shop windows, bicycle frames and kitchen equipment throughout the 20th century, JT Multona draws direct inspiration from Gigant, a 1920s typeface by Genzsch & Heyse. Five weights run from Regular to Black, each with a companion italic, and the family ships as a variable font with optical sizing. Cyrillic support broadens its reach beyond Latin-script applications.

Classification

JT Multona belongs to the square grotesque tradition, characterised by squarish letter shapes and dual italic styles, rooted in early 20th-century display type genres such as Gigant by Genzsch & Heyse from the 1920s.
