About
Designed by Artur Schmal as the sans-serif counterpart to his Parry serif, this typeface takes its cues from the idiosyncratic grotesques of the nineteenth century while remaining clearly contemporary in execution. Sixteen styles span UltraThin through ExtraBlack with full italic coverage, and a condensed subfamily extends the range further. The family handles corporate identity, book typography, magazines and large-format advertising with equal ease.
