Riviera specimen from Swiss Typefaces

A serif from Swiss Typefaces with design credits split between Ian Party (Regular) and Quentin Schmerber across the remaining styles.

About

Riviera is a Swiss Typefaces serif with art direction handled in-house and font engineering by Christoph Koeberlin. The family divides its design credit between Ian Party, who drew the Regular, and Quentin Schmerber, who handled the remaining cuts. Details beyond the immediate credits are sparse, but the release sits within Swiss Typefaces' broader catalogue of controlled, refined text and display typefaces.

Classification

The name and Swiss Typefaces' house style suggest a refined serif with transitional characteristics; the split design credit between Party and Schmerber implies a family developed across multiple optical or weight registers.
