About
Rated R takes its cues from the brief flash of lettering on film rating cards, translating that utilitarian clarity into a serif with modest stroke contrast and solid proportions. Subtle curves soften the directness of the design, keeping it approachable without sacrificing its matter-of-fact character. The 286-glyph character set covers major Western, Central, Northern and Eastern European Latin-based languages, with extended diacritic support.
Classification
