Rubrica specimen from Haus Type

A narrow, high-contrast display serif by Henric Bech Sjösten, released in 2026 with two optical cuts and a variable font for precise size-specific control.

About

Rubrica is built around a condensed display proportion suited to large-scale typesetting, with a Big cut for the largest sizes and a Mid cut for moderately sized headings. A variable font accompanies the static styles, allowing fine adjustment between the two optical extremes. Stylistic sets offer alternate forms for O and o, with standard ligatures and case-sensitive punctuation rounding out the OpenType feature set.

Classification

A narrow, high-contrast serif designed explicitly for large display sizes, with optical cuts (Big and Mid) that situate it firmly in the display serif tradition. Its elegant proportions and condensed width align it with refined editorial display faces.
