About
Designed in conjunction with the photographic practice of Selim Süme, SS-Grotesk positions its letterforms in the ambiguous space the grotesque has always occupied: once alien, now commonplace. Two variants, Original and Alternate, offer different expressions of the same underlying tension. The Latin Extended character set covers 338 glyphs, distributed in OTF and WOFF formats.
Classification
A grotesque sans-serif with two stylistic variants (Original and Alternate), designed with deliberate tension between the familiar and the strange, placing it firmly in the grotesque tradition.
