Keussel Studio · Axel André

About
Bucatini is a sans-serif family from Keussel Studio, covering Light, Regular and Bold alongside a variable font spanning the weight range. Designed by Paris-based graphic and type designer Axel André, whose broader work ranges from the rounded medieval display Basteleur to the austere condensed serif Collapse, Bucatini sits as the studio's commercial sans offering. The absence of italics and the tight three-weight static range position it toward display and editorial use rather than long-form text.
Classification
Classified as a geometric sans-serif based on the weight range (Light, Regular, Bold plus a variable version), the absence of italics in any documented release, and the naming reference to bucatini pasta, which suggests a circular or tubular quality in the letterforms. Direct specimen access was unavailable during research; classification is inferred from contextual signals.
