A serif drawn where the British and French calligraphic traditions meet, with serifs caught between chisel and pen.
About
Castillon sets the lineage of Johnston and Kindersley against that of Vox, Mendoza y Almeida and Excoffon, and looks for what those two traditions share rather than what separates them. Contrast is pronounced, the capitals are built on structure while the lowercase runs far more fluid. Six weights with narrow, barely inclined italics.
Classification
Six weights with matching italics, the italics only slightly inclined and deliberately narrow. Pronounced stroke contrast, with serifs drawn between chisel-cut incision and broad-nib stroke.
