Threedotstype · Marian Misiak, Radek Łukasiewicz
A slightly condensed grotesque with a matching semi-slab variant, originally commissioned for a Wrocław craft brewery and drawn from wooden type references.
About
Designed by Marian Misiak and Radek Łukasiewicz for Browar Stu Mostów, Extract pairs a clean condensed sans with a semi-slab version in which slab serifs appear selectively on capital letters. The slightly compressed proportions give it a bold, energetic rhythm suited to headlines and poster work, while the dual-family structure allows tonal shifts from modern and minimal to characterful and robust within a single coherent system. Its visual DNA draws from wooden grotesques, giving it a tactile quality that sits well in craft and independent brand contexts.
Classification
Described as a condensed grotesque with wooden type influence and a matching semi-slab variant; the core sans sits firmly in the grotesque tradition with a tactile, handmade quality.
