Edge specimen from Typotheque

A two-subfamily type system from Typotheque pairing a serif and a sans variant across nine weights each with matching italics.

About

Edge is structured as a coordinated system comprising Edge and Edge Sans, each running from Thin to Black with corresponding italics — eighteen styles per subfamily, thirty-six in total. The shared proportions and construction between the serif and sans variants make the two subfamilies interchangeable within the same layout or publication. Individual styles are sold under city names ranging from Amsterdam to Reykjavík, suggesting a modular licensing approach typical of Typotheque's catalogue.

Classification

Edge is a sans-serif family with two subfamilies — a serifed variant simply called Edge and a sans variant called Edge Sans — suggesting a humanist construction shared between the two. The presence of both serif and sans versions under a unified system is consistent with humanist sans design logic.
