A wedge-serif text typeface by Roy Preston, featuring squared-off serifs, old-style figures and a companion drawn italic.
About
Krete pairs its distinctive squared wedge serifs with robust rounded strokes to produce a typeface suited to extended text settings. The package includes old-style figures, discretionary ligatures and a stylistic alternate for the uppercase J. Extended Latin coverage spans many western and central European languages.
Classification
Krete features squared-off wedge serifs with robust rounded forms, placing it in the wedge or lapidary serif tradition rather than a classical old-style or transitional model. The old-style figure set and drawn italic confirm a text-oriented serif design.
