sans-serifhumanist sansitalic
Haultin specimen from TYPE BY

A 24-style humanist sans from TYPE BY spanning twelve weights, each with a matching italic and a full set of OpenType features for text work.

About

Twelve weights run from Thin to Black, with each accompanied by an italic, giving 24 styles in total. OpenType features include small capitals, oldstyle and tabular figures, fractions, superscript, scientific inferiors and a slashed zero, making it well-equipped for demanding editorial and typographic work. The naming of intermediate weights as Blond, NormalLight and NormalDark adds fine-grained control in the middle of the range where most text setting sits.

Classification

The range of weights, italic companions and naming conventions suggest a humanist sans with broad text utility; the specimen copy referencing sixteenth-century punchcutting reinforces a connection to historical type culture, consistent with humanist sans sensibilities.
