About
Part of Omnibus-Type's Press Series, Saira Condensed offers nine weights with matching italics, giving editors and designers a compact yet readable option for tight columns and high-information layouts. The original masters were drawn by Héctor Gatti, with character sets later completed by the Omnibus-Type team. Its neutral, adaptable character makes it equally at home in newspaper headlines and long-form text.
Classification
A contemporary sans serif in a condensed width, part of a larger system; classified as grotesque given its neutral, press-oriented character and lack of humanist or geometric tendencies.
