Alecrim specimen from Latinotype

A contemporary grotesque from Latinotype spanning ten weights with italics and a variable font, designed for clarity across both text and display settings.

About

Alecrim draws on 20th-century grotesque precedents, referencing Helvetica, Frutiger and Franklin Gothic while maintaining a sober, trend-resistant rhythm of its own. Taut curves, closed terminals and low stroke contrast give it a precise, graphic character suited to visual identity and editorial systems. The family ships as 20 static styles plus a variable font, with alternate glyph sets for expressive display use.

Classification
