Zed Display Semi-Condensed
One width variant within Typotheque's vast Zed system, a geometric sans spanning nine widths, two optical styles, a text subfamily and a variable font.
About
Zed Display Semi-Condensed sits midway through a nine-width display range that runs from Extra-Compressed to Extra-Wide, each available in nine weights from Hairline to Black with upright, slanted and backslanted cuts. The wider system also includes a Round subfamily sharing the same width and weight structure, a Text subfamily for smaller sizes, and a variable font covering the full range. Individual styles are named after world cities, lending the system an unusual navigational logic across its dozens of purchasable cuts.
Classification
Zed is a geometric sans-serif display system with multiple width variants from extra-compressed to extra-wide; the Display subfamily is explicitly positioned for large-scale use, placing it firmly in the display category.
