About
Designed by Ross Mills with assistance from Anna Štepanovská and Paul Hanslow, Laconia runs from Thin to Extra Bold with matching italics across 14 styles. The glyph set of 779 characters covers an extensive range of Latin extended scripts, reflecting Tiro Typeworks' characteristic attention to multilingual typesetting. It suits text and editorial work where wide language support is a requirement.
Classification
The broad Latin character set with wide language coverage and the balanced weight range suggest a humanist sans design, typical of Tiro Typeworks' approach to text-oriented typefaces with strong typographic craft.
