Right Gothic specimen from Pangram Pangram Foundry

A large variable gothic sans by Alex Slobzheninov spanning seven widths and seven weights, distinguished by a pronounced stroke contrast drawn from early pre-Swiss sans tradition.

About

Right Gothic spans 98 static styles across seven subfamilies — Tall, Tight, Narrow, Compact, Casual, Wide and Spatial — each available in 14 styles with a variable cut covering weight, width and italic axes. Unlike most contemporary sans serifs, it reintroduces visible thick-to-thin contrast, referencing the anatomy of early grotesques that sat between serif and the later neutralised Swiss model. Cyrillic support is included across all subfamilies.

Classification

Described as a 'gothic' sans referring to the pre-Swiss genre of early sans serifs, featuring pronounced stroke contrast reminiscent of serif anatomy, placing it clearly in the historical gothic/grotesque lineage rather than modern neutral sans territory.
