About

Couturier Poster is the display-focused sibling of Couturier, built around elevated stroke contrast suited to headlines and titles. Six weights run from Thin to Black, each with a true italic, and the family includes swashes, ligatures, small caps and alternates for compositional variety. A 1,248-character set provides broad language coverage across Latin-script languages.

Classification

High-contrast didone with vertical stress and fine hairlines, drawing from 18th-century models such as Bodoni and Didot. The 'Poster' designation reflects the elevated contrast optimised for large display sizes.
