Copernicus New Cond
Labor and Wait · 2024
A uniformly condensed serif family from Labor and Wait, released in beta with six weights running from light to heavy.
About
Available in six weights numbered 070 through 170, the family was revised from an earlier beta in which the heaviest weight ran wider as a semicondensed; all cuts are now consistently condensed in proportion. Numeral options include lining proportional as default, alongside lining tabular and oldstyle proportional alternates. Coverage spans a broad range of Latin-script languages, from Afrikaans to Welsh, and the final release files will be provided to beta licensees upon completion.
Classification
The weight naming convention (070–170) and the page's emphasis on uniform condensed proportions across all weights suggest a contemporary condensed serif, likely in the transitional or rational tradition given the name's astronomical lineage and the structured glyph set.
