About
Magazine Grotesque is built for headlines and titles, with deliberate departures from grotesk norms: outstrokes extending beyond the body on 'a' and 'e', and a closed aperture on 'c', produce an irregular rhythm that reads as distinctive rather than neutral. Eight weights from Thin to Heavy give it a broad range for display work. The family covers over 200 Latin-based languages across 487 characters.
Classification
A display-oriented grotesque with closed apertures and distinctive outstroke terminals on 'a' and 'e', departing from conventional grotesk conventions to create an unusual rhythm suited to headlines.
