About
Segnieur Modern follows the rational geometry and extreme stroke contrast of classical modern-face romans, making it well suited to headline and editorial contexts. The design pairs vertical stress with fine hairlines and bracketed serifs in the manner of eighteenth-century French and Italian punch-cutters. It is available in a small range of weights with accompanying italics.
