Berlingske Sans Extra Condensed

sans-serifgrotesquecondensed

An extra condensed grotesque sans from Playtype, drawn for tight editorial settings and headline work.

About

Part of the broader Berlingske family, this extra condensed cut is built for situations where space is at a premium, such as newspaper headlines or compact display lines. The narrow proportion and grotesque structure give it a workhorse quality suited to editorial hierarchies. The page copy hints at a typeface with enough character to carry long-form narrative contexts as well.

Classification

The name and extra condensed descriptor suggest a narrow grotesque sans, consistent with the Berlingske family associated with Playtype's editorial work for Danish media.
