Gavillet & Rust's typewriter-flavoured sans, drawn from a Hammond typewriter shuttle with narrow proportions and generous spacing.

About

A classic sans-serif by Gavillet & Rust drawn from a Hammond typewriter shuttle. The family keeps the source's narrow proportions, with W and M sitting compact, and the generous letterspacing reads clear and sharp at text sizes. Five weights from Thin to Bold with matching italics make it a workable text and identity sans with quiet typewriter character.
