Case specimen from Carrois Type Design

A linear grotesque from Ralph du Carrois, Anja Meiners and Erik Spiekermann, set apart by horizontal stroke endings that all stop at the same height.

About

Case takes the plain linear grotesque and gives it one firm rule: every horizontal terminal ends at the same height, which makes the counters crisp and the texture unusually even. Twelve weights from Hairline to ExtraBlack come with italics and a variable font, and Text and Micro cuts handle small sizes. It covers Latin, Cyrillic and Greek, and is published and sold by Fontwerk.

Classification

A linear grotesque whose horizontal stroke endings all finish at the same height across the character set, cut with precise counters. The foundry files it as linear grotesque; its distributor Fontwerk calls it a neo-grotesque.
