Lyyra Extended
Schick Toikka · Florian Schick, Lauri Toikka
The extended cut of Lyyra: a luxuriant five-weight expressive sans with italics, sitting between Standard and the more decadent Expanded.
About
Lyyra Extended sits one notch wider than Lyyra Standard and one notch narrower than Lyyra Expanded. The foundry describe the wider Lyyra styles as 'luxuriant' and free of patina, making the Extended cut a powerful display option that retains the family's high-waisted caps, petalled counters and vertically cut endings. Five weights from Light to Black with matching italics, plus full OpenType figures and rounded dot alternates, give it the range needed for editorial and identity work.
