A display serif by Diego Aravena that revisits 1970s and 1980s print typography across seven weights with upright and italic styles.
About
Honest takes its formal cues from the serif typefaces found in print media during the 1970s and 1980s, giving it a distinctly period-inflected character that works well for logos and headline settings. Its large x-height suits tight leading, which makes it practical for compact headline compositions. The family runs from Thin to Heavy, each with a matching italic, totalling fourteen styles.
Classification
A display serif drawing on 1970s–80s print media letterforms, with a large x-height and distinctive style suited to headlines and logos rather than continuous text.
