Écono Sans Condensed
A condensed sans-serif built around maximum space economy, with tabular figures, alternate letterforms for a, g and u, and a space-saving double-mm ligature.
About
Écono Sans Condensed is sold as a standalone condensed package, intended to set more text in less space than comparable typefaces. OpenType features include tabular figures, standard ligatures and the unusual double-mm ligature, which compresses a common letter pair without drawing the reader's attention. Alternate forms of a, g and u allow a more open texture in running text.
Classification
A condensed sans-serif designed explicitly for space efficiency, with OpenType alternates and ligatures suggesting a contemporary grotesque construction. The condensed-only offering and space-saving premise place it firmly in the utilitarian sans tradition.
