William Subhead specimen from Typotheque

A subhead-optimised optical cut from Typotheque's William system, a classical serif family engineered across three optical sizes.

About

William Subhead is one of three size-specific cuts in Typotheque's William family, sitting between the high-contrast Display and the robust Text variant. The family spans Regular and Bold weights, each with a matching italic, and a variable font is also available for the Subhead cut. The system's multi-optical structure reflects a rigorous approach to classical serif design, tuned for the different optical conditions of display, intermediate and body settings.

Classification

William is a multi-optical-size serif system with distinct Display, Subhead and Text cuts; the Subhead optical size sits between display contrast and text legibility, characteristic of a transitional or classical serif design.
