Ragu
Nova Type Foundry · Joana Correia · Marcus Sterz · 2026
A rounded display typeface by Joana Correia and Marcus Sterz, built for branding and packaging where warmth and shelf presence matter equally.
About
Six upright weights from Extralight to Bold, each paired with a true italic, give designers a tonal range that moves from gentle to assertive while retaining consistent softness. Open counters, carefully controlled spacing and sturdy silhouettes allow Ragu to hold legibility at smaller sizes, covering ingredients lists and functional label copy as well as headlines. Distinctive terminal and curve details add craft character without disrupting the coherence needed for brand systems. Covers Latin Extended and Vietnamese.
Classification
Ragu is classified as display due to its soft rounded construction, generous curves and distinctive terminal details aimed at branding, packaging and signage rather than extended text use.
