About

Inspired by the measured delivery of Sir David Attenborough, New Atten Round Italic pairs rounded terminals with a humanist structure built for long-text comfort. The family includes an Accessibility Set with differentiating forms for capital I and lowercase l, plus stylistic sets offering infant a and g for children's book use, and a minimal numeral 1 referencing Edward Johnston's London Transport letterforms. Five weights run from Book to Extra Bold, each with matching italics across the New Atten collection.

Classification
