About

Gaspo Slab pairs contemporary humanist proportions with strong serifs and ink traps, keeping text legible at small sizes without sacrificing personality at display scales. The family covers 434 characters including European diacritics, tabular figures, alternate characters, numerators and fractions, enabling use across 128 languages. It suits editorial, corporate and advertising contexts equally well.

Classification

A humanist slab serif with ink traps, ample counters and contemporary proportions. The humanist influence is evident in the organic curves and varied stroke contrast rather than the rigid geometry of a Clarendon or Egyptian model.
