About
Designed by Dominik Huber, Marc Kappeler and Noël Leu, GT Sectra marries the stroke contrast of the broad nib pen with crisp, incised terminals. It extends across three subfamilies — GT Sectra, GT Sectra Fine and GT Sectra Display — covering a spectrum from text to large-scale use. Script coverage includes Latin, Cyrillic, Greek and Vietnamese, making it suitable for international editorial and long-form publishing contexts.
Classification
GT Sectra is a contemporary serif combining broad nib calligraphic stroke contrast with scalpel-sharp terminals, placing it in the category of calligraphic or pen-influenced contemporary serifs rather than a traditional old style or transitional classification.
