About
Grobek carries diagonal stress and soft teardrop terminals rooted in 15th-century humanist models, with the Alt subfamily introducing alternate letterforms for a more expressive character. At 32 styles total, the family covers short text, branding and editorial applications across more than 200 Latin-based languages. The two subfamilies share the same weight range, allowing designers to mix registers within a single project.
Classification
A serif with diagonal stress and teardrop terminals, inspired by Garamond and American Typewriter alongside 15th-century models. The combination of old-style stress with contemporary proportions places it loosely in the transitional zone.
