Schick Toikka · Florian Schick, Lauri Toikka
The wide cut of the Items display branch: a spacious transitional serif for headlines, exploring Times-lineage forms freed from space constraints.
About
Items Wide widens the proportions of the Items display branch. Six weights from Thin to Black with matching italics keep the family's tight letter fit and tapered joints intact while opening up the horizontal stance, which the foundry describe as exploring what a transitional serif looks like when freed from space constraints. Items Wide pairs naturally with Items Standard and Items Condensed in the display branch and with the Items Text branch for body sizes, supported by Latin Extended language coverage.
Classification
