About
Designed to evoke the gritty industrial history of Whitechapel, from its bell foundries and cloth mills to its famous East End character, this typeface is built for headline impact at large sizes. Its extended, heavyweight forms make it suited to editorial and poster work where a bold, distinctive presence is required. The family supports Latin, Cyrillic and Greek scripts for broad European language coverage.
