A humanist sans-serif by Matthieu Cortat that resists the calligraphic tendencies of the genre in favour of strong shoulders, low contrast and a measured weight across four weights with italics.
About
Cosimo takes Gill Sans as a spiritual reference point while deliberately avoiding the over-roundness and mannered quality that often characterise humanist sans designs. Each of the four weights – Light, Regular, Bold and Black – carries a distinct personality while remaining coherent as a family, and the italic is kept deliberately plain rather than expressive. The result suits a range of settings from book text and magazines to titling and screen use.
Classification
A humanist sans-serif in the spirit of Gill Sans, with strong shoulders and low stroke contrast. Deliberately avoids the over-rounded, calligraphic tendencies common in the genre, favouring a grounded, slightly dark presence on the page.
