Zetal specimen from Aeiou Tools

A geometric grotesque built on a rigid grid, taking its solidity from mid-century American water-tank and cargo-container signage.

About

Zetal merges the typographic heritage of the Enschede foundry with mid-20th-century American industrial signage, run through a strict geometric grid. Expanded horizontal proportions and consistent metrics give it a mechanical, technical presence. It ships in eight weights across three widths, plus a variable font.

Classification

A grid-built geometric grotesque with expanded horizontal proportions and consistent vertical-to-horizontal metrics, sitting between European geometric precision and mid-century American industrial signage.
