Charlie
A humanist sans from Typotheque with a proportional weight system designed to maintain consistent stroke widths as type size changes.
About
Charlie spans eight weights from Hairline to Black, each paired with an italic, and includes a subfamly called Echo which extends the family further. Its distinguishing feature is a proportional weight calculator intended to keep stroke widths visually consistent across different point sizes, a practical consideration for multi-scale typographic systems. Suited to editorial and text-heavy work where optical consistency across sizes matters.
Classification
Charlie reads as a humanist sans-serif, with proportionally calibrated stroke weights across a broad weight range and a subfamly called Echo, suggesting text-oriented optical sensitivity typical of humanist designs.
